Answer:

The discriminant of ax^2+bx+c is b^2-4ac.  

If the discriminant, d, is:

d<0, there are no real solutions (there are two imaginary solutions however)

d=0, there is one real solution

d>0, there are two real solutions

In this case d=16-32=-16 so there are two imaginary solutions.  Or from your answer choices, it can be said that there are no real number solutions becuse the discriminant is less than zero.

Sanjay bought a basket of oranges, a basket of apples,a basket of mangoes and a basket of peaches.He paid a total of Rs 790 for
Margarita [4]
Let a the price of a basket of oranges be O, that of a basket of apples A, a basket of mangoes M and a basket of peaches P, then
 O + A + M + P = 790   . . . (1)
M - 4 = P + 7 = 3O = A/2 . . . (2)
From (2), we have:
M = P + 11
O = (P + 7)/3
A = 2P + 14

Substituting for M, O and A into (1), gives:
(P + 7)/3 + 2P + 14 + P + 11 + P = 790
P + 7 + 6P + 42 + 3P + 33 + 3P = 2370
13P + 82 = 2370
13P = 2288
P = 176

Therefore, the price of a basket of peaches is Rs176.

The equation 1.5r+15=2.25r1.5r+15=2.25r represents the number rr of movies you must rent to spend the same amount at each movie
Lelu [443]
1.5r+15=2.25r
Combine like terms: 1.5r+15-1.5r=2.25r-1.5r
15=0.75r
Get the unknown alone: 15/.75=.75/.75r
20=r or r=20 :)
