Using the discriminant determine the number and type of solutions for 3x2-6x plus 30?
6^2 -4(3*30) = -96 meaning that the given quadratic expression has no real roots
Factor x3 plus 3x2-6x-8?
x3 + 3x2 - 6x - 8 = (x - 2)(x2 + 5x + 4) = (x - 2)(x + 1)(x + 4)
State the discriminant of the quadratic 3x2-4x plus 4 equals 0?
The discriminant is -32.
Simplify 3x2 plus 2x - 8?
3x2 + 2x - 8 = 3x2 + 6x - 4x - 8 = 3x(x + 2) - 4(x + 2) = (x + 2)(3x - 4).
What is 3x squared minus 6x divided by 3x?
(3x2 - 6x)/3x = 3x(x-2)/3x = x-2, for x<>0
What is the discriminant value in 3x2 6x 5?
The operator (+ or -) before the 5 (and before the 6, but that doesn't matter for the discriminant) is missing from the question, so:If it is 3x2 ± 6x + 5, thendiscriminant = (±6)2 - 4 x 3 x 5 = 36 - 60 = -24 If it is 3x2 ± 6x - 5, thendiscriminant = (±6)2 - 4 x 3 x (-5) = 36 + 60 = 96
What is the value of the discriminant polynomial 3x2 plus 6x plus 5?
b^2 - 4ac Is the discriminant. 6^2 - 4(3)(5) 36 - 60 = - 24 < 0 so, an unreal answer and no real X intercepts
Using the discriminant determine the number and type of solutions for 3x2-6x plus 30?
6^2 -4(3*30) = -96 meaning that the given quadratic expression has no real roots
What is One factor of 3x2- 6x plus 9?
3X2 + 6X + 9 3(X2 + 2 + 3) -----------------------3 is a common factor of all terms
-3x squared equals 5 plus 3x?
-3x2 = 5 + 3x (add 3x2 to both sides)0 = 3x2 + 5 + 3x or3x2 + 3x + 5 = 0 (since the discriminant is less than zero, we have complex roots)x = [-3 ± √[(32 - 4(3)(5)]]/2(3)x = [-3 ± √(9 - 60)]/6x = (-3 ± √-51)/6x = (-3 ± i√51)/6x = (-3 + i√51)/6 = -1/2 + (√51/6)i orx = (-3 - i√51)/6 = -1/2 - (√51/6)i
Factor x3 plus 3x2-6x-8?
x3 + 3x2 - 6x - 8 = (x - 2)(x2 + 5x + 4) = (x - 2)(x + 1)(x + 4)
Using the discriminant how many times does the graph of this equation cross the x axis 3x2 plus 6x plus 20?
In this case, the discriminant is less than zero and the graph of this parabola lies above the x-axis. It never crosses.
How do you factor -6x plus 9x2-24?
-6x + 9x2 - 24 = 3(3x2 - 2x - 8) = 3(3x2 - 6x + 4x - 8) = 3(3x(x - 2) + 4(x - 2)) = 3(3x + 4)(x - 2)
State the discriminant of the quadratic 3x2-4x plus 4 equals 0?
The discriminant is -32.
Simplify 3x2 plus 2x - 8?
3x2 + 2x - 8 = 3x2 + 6x - 4x - 8 = 3x(x + 2) - 4(x + 2) = (x + 2)(3x - 4).
How would you factor factor factor 18x to the 3-6x to the 2 plus 24x?
6x(3x2 - x + 4)
What are the roots of 3x2-7x 2?
3x2 - 7x + 2 = 3x2 - 6x - x + 2 = 3x(x - 2) - 1(x - 2) = (3x - 1)(x - 2) So x = 1/3 or x = 2
