Find the discriminant of X^2+ 4x - 3 = 0

Drupady [299]

Answer:

2 real solutions

Step-by-step explanation:

Given a quadratic equation in standard form

ax² + bx + c = 0 ( a ≠ 0 ), then the discriminant is

Δ = b² - 4ac

• If b² - 4ac > 0 then 2 real and distinct solutions

• If b² - 4ac = 0 then 2 real and equal solutions

• If b² - 4ac < 0 then no real solutions

x² + 4x - 3 = 0 ← is in standard form

with a = 1, b = 4, c = - 3 , then

b² - 4ac = 4² - (4× 1 × - 3) = 16 - (- 12) = 16 + 12 = 28

Since b² - 4ac > 0 then the equation has 2 real and distinct solutions

Malcolm Little High School has sopho- mores, juniors, and seniors, but no freshmen. The ratio of sophomores to juniors is 5 to 4

djverab [1.8K]

Answer:

161 seniors

Step-by-step explanation:

According to the problem, given data are as follows:

Total number of sophomores = 300

Sophomores to junior ratio = 5:4

So, Number of Juniors = 300 × (4 ÷ 5)

= 240

Now, Juniors to senior ratio = 3:2

So, we can calculate the number of seniors by using following method:

Number of seniors = 240 × ( 2 ÷ 3)

= 240 × 0.67

= 160.8 or 161

Malcolm has been watching a roulette-style game at a local charity bazaar. The game has only ten numbers on the wheel, and every

Mariana [72]

Answer:

Malcolm is showing evidence of gambler's fallacy.

This is the tendency to think previous results can affect future performance of an event that is fundamentally random.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since each round of the roulette-style game is independent of each other. The probability that 8 will come up at any time remains the same, equal to the probability of each number from 1 to 10 coming up. That it has not come up in the last 15 minutes does not increase or decrease the probability that it would come up afterwards.

The coordinates of trapezoid ABCD are A(−4, 3), B(2, 3), C(4, −1) and D(−4, −1). A line segment runs through the trapezoid with

The distance from point Y to the y-axis is 4 units and the distance from point Z to the y-axis is 3 units, then the lelgth of the segment YZ is 4+3=7 units.
If <span>a scale factor is 3, then the length of Y'Z' will be 7·3=21 units.

P.S. In the added picture you can see trapezoid ABCD that was dilated by a scale factor 3 about the origin. This may help to understand that all linear values after dilation become multiplied by scale factor.
