The answer is 9. there are 9 different combinations to choose from.
Discriminant = b^2 - 4ac, where a, b and c come from the form of the quadratic equation as ax^2 + bx + c
Discriminant = (4)^2 - 4(1)(5)
= 16 - 20
= -4
-4 < 0, therefor there are no roots
(If the discriminant = 0, then there is one root
If the discriminant > 0, there are two roots, and if it is a perfect square (eg. 4, 9, 16, etc.) then there are two rational roots
If the discriminant < 0, there are no roots)
Answer:
The rectangular 5 x 10 table.
Step-by-step explanation:
To find which table the office manager needs to get so he can sit more people at it is decided by one factor, the perimeter. The rectangular one, which is 5 x 10 the perimeter is (5 x 2) + (10 x 2) = 10 + 20 = 30. The circular one can be calculated by the equation
where d = 8. Putting 
x 8 in my calculator and it comes out approximately at 25.132, having a less amount of perimeter space to work with, making the rectangular table the way to go.
Answer:
10y=27+7
10y=34
y=34/10
y=3.4
Step-by-step explanation:
Firstly 7 is added to 27
Then adding 7 and 27
Dividing 34 by 10
