Why is the discriminant a useful tool to use when solving quadratic equations?

=======================================================

Explanation:

I'm assuming your teacher meant to say "same number or letter" instead of "same number of letter" at the very end of the problem.

The best case scenario is that the person selecting the cards is very lucky to select say a king of hearts and king of clubs. This shows that 2 cards is the lowest amount of cards to select here.

----------

Of course, such a scenario is not that likely. That person is likely to get some other card compared to the 1st selection.

Let's assume the person selecting the cards has the worst luck possible. This means they select each card 1,2,3,...,10,J,Q,K exactly once in any order. If this happens, then the person does not have any pairs just yet. The person has selected 13 cards so far with this worst case scenario.

The 14th card is guaranteed to pair up with some other card previously chosen. There simply aren't any other options left once you've exhausted all possibilities. See the pigeonhole principle for more information.

So this is why you would need to select 14 cards to guarantee having at least two pair up together (i.e. you would have 2 or more pairs).

The given quadratic equation has two possible roots as -

{x} = -1/2 and {x} = 1.667.

A quadratic equation is a equation that is of the form -

y = f{x} = ax² + bx + c

Given is the statement as -

"12 x squared minus 14 x equals 10"

The given function can be written as -

f(x) = 12x² - 14x - 10

Refer to the graph attached. The x - intercepts show the solution of the given quadratic equation. So, we can write -

(x + 1/2)(x - 1.667) = 0

(x + 1/2) = 0     and     (x - 1.667) = 0

x = -1/2     and      x = 1.667

Therefore, the given quadratic equation has two possible roots as -

{x} = -1/2 and {x} = 1.667.

To calculate the distance between two points:

We apply the following formula:

d = √(x₂ - x₁)² + (y₂ - y₁)²

The points are:

We substitute data and solve:

[tex]\bf{d=\sqrt{(6-(-3))^2+(-8-8(-8))^2 } }\\ \\ \bf{ d=\sqrt{9^2+0^2}=\sqrt{81+0} }\\ \\ \bf{d=\sqrt{81}=9 }[/tex]

The unknown angle of the triangle is as follows:

∠BCE =  65 degrees

A triangle is a polygon with three sides. The sum of angles in a triangle is 180 degrees.

Therefore, the angle ∠BCE can be found as follows:

∠BAC = 70 degrees

∠ABC = 60 degrees

∠ACB = 180 - 70 - 60

∠ACB = 180 - 130

∠ACB = 50 degrees

Hence, using exterior angle theorem,

The exterior angle theorem states that the measure of an exterior angle is equal to the sum of the measures of the two remote interior angles of the triangle.

∠BCD = 60 + 70 = 130 degrees

Hence,

∠BCE = 130 / 2 = 65 degrees

Answer:

To solve this problem, we can set up the following equation:

2.5 inches = 1,000 feet

We are told that the model is 18 inches high, so we can write the following equation:

18 inches = X feet

To solve for X, we can cross-multiply the equations to get:

(2.5 inches)X = (1,000 feet)(18 inches)

Simplifying this equation, we get:

X = 4,500 feet

Therefore, the height of the volcano is 4,500 feet.

What is expression ?

Mathematical expressions consist of at least two numbers or variables, at least one arithmetic operation, and a statement. It's possible to multiply, divide, add, or subtract with this mathematical operation.

Any mathematical statement that includes numbers, variables, and an arithmetic operation between them is known as an expression or algebraic expression. In the phrase 4m + 5, for instance, the terms 4m and 5 are separated from the variable m by the arithmetic sign +.

An algebraic expression is made up of a number of variables, constants, and mathematical operations. We are aware that variables have a wide range of values and no set value. They can be multiplied, divided, added, subtracted, and other mathematical operations since they are numbers. as in 3x Plus 4.

Given is that during a 20-year period, G and I can be modeled by the following equation (where t is the time in years) :

G = 6t^4+ 3t³ – 2t² + 5t + 60

I = 3t^4 - 3t³ + 5t² - 5t + 45

where {G} is the number (in billions) of new green tea sales and {I} be the number in billions of new fruit juice sales.

A new model {A} for the total number of new green tea and fruit juice sales can be written as -

{A} = {G} + {I}

{A} = 6t^4+ 3t³ – 2t² + 5t + 60 + 3t^4 - 3t³ + 5t² - 5t + 45

{A} = 9t^4 + 3t² + 105

Therefore, the new model {A} for the total number of new green tea and fruit juice sales can be written as {A} = 9t^4 + 3t² + 105

The roots of the quadratic equation x² - x - 56 = 0 is x = -7 or x = 8

A quadratic equation is a second-order polynomial equation in a single variable x , ax² + bx + c=0. with a ≠ 0. Because it is a second-order polynomial equation, the fundamental theorem of algebra guarantees that it has at least one solution. The solution may be real or complex.

The roots of the quadratic equations are

x = [ -b ± √ ( b² - 4ac ) ] / ( 2a )

where ( b² - 4ac ) is the discriminant

when ( b² - 4ac ) is positive, we get two real solutions

when discriminant is zero we get just one real solution (both answers are the same)

when discriminant is negative we get a pair of complex solutions

Given data ,

Let the equation be represented as A

Now , the value of A is

x² - x - 56 = 0   be equation (1)

On simplifying the equation , we get

x² - 8x + 7x - 56 = 0

Taking the common terms in the equation , we get

x ( x - 8 ) + 7 ( x - 8 ) = 0

Now , on factorizing the equation , we get

( x + 7 ) ( x - 8 ) = 0

We have two factors which can solve the equation ,

when ( x + 7 ) = 0

Subtracting 7 on both sides of the equation , we get

x = -7

And , when ( x - 8 ) = 0

Adding 8 on both sides of the equation , we get

x = 8

Answer:

x = 8

x = -7

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the solutions of the quadratic equation x^2 - x - 56 = 0, we can use the quadratic formula:

x = (-b ± √(b^2 - 4ac)) / (2a)

In this equation, a = 1, b = -1, and c = -56. Plug these values into the formula and calculate the discriminant (the value inside the square root):

Discriminant (D) = b^2 - 4ac = (-1)^2 - 4(1)(-56) = 1 + 224 = 225

Now, calculate the two possible solutions:

x1 = (-(-1) + √225) / (2(1)) = (1 + 15) / 2 = 16 / 2 = 8

x2 = (-(-1) - √225) / (2(1)) = (1 - 15) / 2 = -14 / 2 = -7

So, the correct solutions to the equation x^2 - x - 56 = 0 are:

x = 8 (x = 0 is not a solution)

x = -7

The length of ribbon is 48 yards.

The unitary technique involves first determining the value of a single unit, followed by the value of the necessary number of units.

For example, Let's say Ram spends 36 Rs. for a dozen (12) bananas.

12 bananas will set you back 36 Rs. 1 banana costs 36 x 12 = 3 Rupees.

As a result, one banana costs three rupees. Let's say we need to calculate the price of 15 bananas.

This may be done as follows: 15 bananas cost 3 rupees each; 15 units cost 45 rupees.

Given:

Kala got a prepaid debit card with $15.

Price of Ribbon = 24 cents per yard.

After purchase money left $3.48.

So, Price of Ribbon purchased = 15 - 3.48 = $11.52 = 1152 cents

length of ribbon = 1152/ 24
