Use the discriminant to determine the number of solutions to the quadratic equation 3x^2+5x=-1
Answer:
Two real distinct solutions
Step-by-step explanation:
Hi there!
Background of the Discriminant
The discriminant [tex]b^2-4ac[/tex] applies to quadratic equations when they are organised in standard form: [tex]ax^2+bx+c=0[/tex].
All quadratic equations can be solved with the quadratic formula: [tex]x = \frac{{ - b \pm \sqrt {b^2 - 4ac} }}{{2a}}}[/tex].
When [tex]b^2-4ac[/tex] is positive, it is possible to take its square root and end up with two real, distinct values of x.
When it is zero, we won't be taking the square root at all and we will end up with two real solutions that are equal, or just one solution.
When it is negative, it is impossible to take the square root and we will end up with two non-real solutions.
Solving the Problem
[tex]3x^2+5x=-1[/tex]
We're given the above equation. It hasn't been organised completely in [tex]ax^2+bx+c=0[/tex], but we can change that by adding 1 to both sides to make the right side equal to 0:
[tex]3x^2+5x+1=0[/tex]
Now that we can identify the values of a, b and c, we can plug them into the discriminant:
[tex]D=b^2-4ac\\D=(5)^2-4(3)(1)\\D=25-4(3)(1)\\D=25-12\\D=13[/tex]
Therefore, because the discriminant is positive, the equation has two real, distinct solutions.
I hope this helps!

answer right 2, up 3
any function with the following form is a transformation from f(x) = x²
g(x) = (x – a)² + b
were a moves the function to the right when a is a positive number and to the left when its a negative number, and b moves the function up when b is positive and down when its negative.
then for a=2 positive and b=3 positive, we have

The penguins currently living on an island are of two types, Chinstrap penguins and Gentoo penguins. The range of the heights of the Chinstrap penguins on the island is 13.2 centimeters, and the range of the heights of the Gentoo penguins on the island is 15.4 centimeters.
Which of the following statements individually provide(s) sufficient additional information to determine the range of the heights of all the penguins on the island?
Indicate all such statements.
A The tallest Gentoo penguin on the island is 5.8 centimeters taller than the tallest Chinstrap penguin on the island.
B The median height of the Gentoo penguins on the island is 1.1 centimeters greater than the median height of the Chinstrap penguins on the island.
C The average (arithmetic mean) height of the Gentoo penguins on the island is 4.6 centimeters greater than the average height of the Chinstrap penguins on the island.
Answer:
The answer is "Option A"
Step-by-step explanation:
Using the range difference to calculate the maximum and minimum value.
The range of the chinstrap penguins are:
[tex]R(c) = Max(c) - Min(c) = 13.2[/tex]
The range of the Gentoo penguins are:
[tex]R(g) = Max(g) - Min(g) = 15.4[/tex]
For point A:
[tex]Max(c) = x\\\\Max(g) = x + 5.8\\\\R(c) = x - Min(c) = 13.2 \to x = 13.2 + Min(c)\\\\R(g) = x + 5.8 - Min(g) = 15.4 \to x = 9.6 + Min(g)[/tex]
equate both of them
[tex]13.2 + Min(c) = 9.6 + Min(g)Min(g) - Min(c) = 3.6[/tex]
It indicates that Min(c) surpasses Min(g), whereas Max(g) exceeds Max (c).
Therefore, the Max is picked for g for all penguins and the minimum is picked for c.
Range of all penguins [tex]= Max(g) - Min(c) = x + 5.8 - x + 13.2 = 19[/tex]
Therefore, it will be determined as the option.
For point B:
In estimating the range the median height cannot help.
For point C:
In order to calculate the variety, the connection between both the mean height cannot be sued.

Vertex of a quadratic function:
Suppose we have a quadratic function in the following format:
[tex]f(x) = ax^{2} + bx + c[/tex]
It's vertex is the point [tex](x_{v}, y_{v})[/tex]
In which
[tex]x_{v} = -\frac{b}{2a}[/tex]
[tex]y_{v} = -\frac{\Delta}{4a}[/tex]
Where
[tex]\Delta = b^2-4ac[/tex]
If a<0, the vertex is a maximum point, that is, the maximum value happens at [tex]x_{v}[/tex], and it's value is [tex]y_{v}[/tex].
y = -2x2 + 8x + 5
Quadratic function with [tex]a = -2, b = 8, c = 5[/tex]
What is the maximum height that the stone reaches?
y value of the vertex. So
[tex]\Delta = 8^2-4(-2)(5) = 64 + 40 = 104[/tex]
[tex]y_{v} = -\frac{104}{4(-2)} = 26[/tex]
The maximum height that the stone reaches is of 26 feet.

Step-by-step explanation:
A new car is purchased for 18,000 dollars. The value of the car depreciates at 11.5% per year. What will the value of the car be, to the nearest cent, after 10 years?
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
The exponential decay function is
[tex]v(t)=a(b)^t[/tex] where b, the rate of decay, for us is (1 - .115) and a is the original value of the car which, for us, is 18000. t is the time in years. Using this information to write the equation we need to solve for the value when the car is 10 years old:
[tex]v(t)=18000(.885)^t[/tex] and we sub in 10 for t:
[tex]v(t)=18000(.885)^{10[/tex] which simplifies to
v(t) = 18000(.2947356754) so
v(t) = 5305.24
solve for x round to the nearest tenth if necessary

How high is the end of a 70 foot ramp when it is tipped to an angle of 45 degrees?
Answer:
35[tex]\sqrt{2}[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
This scenario can be represented and solved by drawing a triangle. The hypotenuse of the triangle represents the ramp which has a length of 70 feet. The angle between the hypotenuse and the leg of the triangle that is parallel to the ground is 45 degrees. Since we know that this is a right triangle, we can conclude that this is a 45-45-90 degree right triangle. We can use the ratios of the sides of special right triangles to solve the problem from here. We know that the two sides and the hypotenuse of a 45-45-90 triangle can be represented as x, x, and x[tex]\sqrt{2}[/tex] respectively. This means that the hypotenuse of 70 feet is equal to x
Then we solve the following equation:
x[tex]\sqrt{2}[/tex] = 70
x = [tex]\frac{70}{\sqrt{2} }[/tex]
x = [tex]\frac{70}{\sqrt{2} } * \frac{\sqrt{2} }{\sqrt{2} }[/tex]
x = [tex]\frac{70\sqrt{2} }{\sqrt{4} }[/tex]
x = [tex]\frac{70\sqrt{2} }{2}[/tex]
x = [tex]35\sqrt{2}[/tex]
This means that each side of the triangle has a length of [tex]35\sqrt{2}[/tex] so that is also the height of the end of the ramp from the ground.
The price of a car is currently 120,000$. The price of the car decreases annually by 2.5%. What is the price of the car after 8 years?
Answer:
97,988.216
Step-by-step explanation:
So, we can find this by using the following formula:
First value(change)^time
We know that the orginal, or first value, is 120,000.
We know that the time interval for this is 8 years, which is our time value.
We know that the decrease in this price is 2.5%. However, this is not our change.
Our change is the 97.5% price that is left.
This makes sense, because you would get a super small price when you use 2.5% as change.
So to sum up what we have done so far:
First value - 120,000
Change - 100%-2.5% = 97.5%. In decimal form: 0.975
Time - 8
So lets plug these into:
[tex]First_.value(change)^t^i^m^e[/tex]
=
[tex]120,000(0.975)^8[/tex]
And remember your order of operations here.
We dont have any equations or expressions inside the parethese, so we can move on to what comes next - exponents.
We have the exponent 8, which is attached to the 0.975.
So in your calculator, take 0.975, and put it to the 8th power.
You should get 0.816651803662261962890625
Lets leave it like this, becuase 120,000 is a very large value, and rounding what you multiply could change what you get in the end.
Now our equation looks like:
120,000(0.816651803662261962890625)
We have done parethese, exponents - now we have multiplication and division.
We do indeed have this, since 120,000(0.816651803662261962890625) could also be written as:
[tex]120,000*0.816651803662261962890625[/tex]
Now multiplying this you should get:
97,998.216439471435546875
This is where you can round your answer.
I do not know what exactly they want you to round to, so its safe to just round your answer to the hundreths place:
97,998.22
So this is the new price of the car!
Hope this helps!
oh I did a mistake earlier , pardon ^^"
Current price (Pₒ) = 120, 000 $Rate of Depreciation (R) = 2. 5% Total Time = 8 yearsLet price after 8 years be P.
Using the compound interest formula of shrinking principal :-
P = Pₒ( 1 - R/ 100) ᵀ
P = 120, 000 ( 1 - 2.5/ 100)ᵀ
P = 120, 000 { (100 - 2.5)/ 100}ᵀ
P = 120, 000{ 97. 5/ 100 }ᵀ
P = 120, 000 {0. 975 } ⁸
P = 120, 000 { 0. 8166}
P = 97,998.216 $
Since, P is is price after 8 years
Answer:-The price of the car after 8 years will be 97, 998. 216 $

Step-by-step explanation:
Let a = number of pieces of chocolate bought by Amin.
Let b = number of pieces of chocolate bought by Bob.
b = 2a
(a - 3)(b - 3) = 14
ab - 3a - 3b + 9 = 14
a(2a) - 3a - 3(2a) = 5
2a^2 - 3a - 6a = 5
2a^2 - 9a - 5 = 0
(2a + 1)(a - 5) = 0
2a + 1 = 0 or a - 5 = 0
a = -1/2 or a = 5
Amin cannot have bought -1/2 pieces of chocolate, so we discard the soluion a = -1/2.
a = 5
