Answer:
No <em>real</em> solutions (or has two complex roots)
Step-by-step explanation:
The discriminant, <em>b</em>² - 4<em>ac</em>, is the expression (<u><em>radicand </em></u>) of the quadratic equation:
.
The value of the discriminant determines the <u>nature</u> and the <u>number of solutions</u> given by the quadratic equation.
A discriminant with a negative value (or b² - 4ac < 0 ) means that the quadratic equation has no real solutions or two complex solutions. Quadratic equations with a negative discriminant also have no x-intercepts; thus, its graph will not cross the x-axis.
Since my answer was deleted here it is:
The variable x represents the cost per pound of meat.
The variable y represents the cost per pound of cheese.
The deli charges $4.50 for a pound of meat.
Have a great day! (this is late but for anyone else who needs it)
Answer:
2/5 or 0.4 in decimal form
Step-by-step explanation:
Only 2 parts out of 5 on the spinner is highlighted.
Well 5+2 is 7 and 51/2+21/7 is 57/2
108=2x-4(2x-9)
108=2x-8x+36
108=-6x+36
-36 -36
72=-6x
72/-6=-6x/-6
-12=x
