PART A:
The given quadratic equation is 2x²-10x-8=0
The radicand is given by b²-4ac where a, b, and c are the constants in a quadratic form ax²+bx+c
From the given equation, we have
a = 2
b = -10
c = -8
Radicand b²-4ac = (-10)² - 4(2)(-8) = 100 + 64 = 164
The radicand is >0 hence the quadratic equation has two distinct roots
PART B:
4x²-12x+5 = 0
We can use the factorization method to solve the equation
Firstly, we multiply 4 by 5 to get 20
Then we find the pair of numbers that multiply gives 20 and sum gives -12
The pair of number is -2 and -10
Rewriting the equation
4x²-2x-10x+5 = 0
2x(2x-1)-5(2x-1) = 0
(2x-1)(2x-5) = 0
2x-1 = 0 and 2x-5 = 0
x = 1/2 and x = 5/2
Answer:
3.183.10^7
Step-by-step explanation:
The answer is √58 = 7.62
So, if you draw this down, you will see that the direct distance is hypotenuse c of a right triangle which sides are 3 blocks (1 south and 2 north) and 7 blocks (4 west and 3 east).
Use the Pythagorean theorem:
c² = a² + b²
a = 3
b = 7
c² = 3² + 7²
c² = 9 + 49
c² = 58
c = √58
c = 7.62
