Answer: In the quadratic formula, if the discriminant is greater than or equal to 0, then the solutions to the quadratic equation will be real numbers. ... Looking at the graph of a quadratic equation, if the parabola does not cross or intersect the x-axis, then the equation has no real solution.
We have to use the function A(t)= a(1 +/- r)^t
So A is going to be the answer- the area after 8 years. t is going to be 8, because t is time. a is 2400 because that's the starting value. Finally, we're going to turn 5.75% into it's decimal form of .0575. That's going to be r, and because the area is decreasing, we will subtract r from 1.
Our new function is:
A=2400(1-.0575)^8
Simplify a little bit.
A=2400(.9425)^8
Bring .9425 to to power of 8 and then multiply by 2400 because PEDMAS.
A=1494.38366866
The rounded answer is 1494 kilometers squared.
Answer:
A'(2, 6 )
Step-by-step explanation:
Assuming the dilatation is centred at the origin, then multiply each of the coordinates by 
A(3, 9 ) → A'( (3), (9) ) → A'(2, 6 )
