The slope is 0 or answer B.)
An estimate for the number of ducks would be 62.
There were 30 the first day.
The second day, 8 of those 30 were there as well, so we subtract that from the 40 ducks and get 32.
Add 30 and 32 to get our estimate.
Answer:
(a) There are two complex roots
Step-by-step explanation:
The discriminant of a quadratic function describes the nature of its roots:
- <u>negative</u>: two complex roots
- <u>zero</u>: one real root (multiplicity 2)
- <u>positive</u>: two distinct real roots.
__
Your discriminant of -8 is <em>negative</em>, so it indicates ...
There are two complex roots
_____
<em>Additional comment</em>
We generally study polynomials with <em>real coefficients</em>. These will never have an odd number of complex roots. Their complex roots always come in conjugate pairs.
Answer:
29,750
Step-by-step explanation:
Each year the population is multiplied by 100% + 4% = 1.04. We want to repeat that multiplication 15 times, once for each of the 15 years. An exponent is what we use to signify (and compute) repeated multiplication. The population will be ...
16,519 × 1.04^15 ≈ 29749.8 ≈ 29,750
The factors of 5 are 1 and 5.
1 x 5 = 5
5 x 1 = 5
Hope this helps! :)
