The discriminant of a quadratic equation is 16. Which number represents the number of real solutions to the equation? 0

3

The

number 2

Step-by-step explanation:

What we need here is just the sign of the discriminant

From the question in this case, the discriminant is positive

Thus, whenever we have a positive discriminant, then the number of real solution is 2 and these two are distinct (different from one another).

answer: 1 and 3

call the larger triangle abc

then the smaller triangle cde is similar to abc (all angles are equal, aaa).  

ab is the side that is 36, and we wish to find de, the side corresponding to ab

area_cde = area_abc - area_cde --> area_abc / area_cde = 2

let x=length of de

ratio of areas = (ratio of sides)^2

+2+=+%2836%2fx%29%5e2+

+2+=+1296%2fx%5e2+

++x%5e2+=+1296%2f2+=+648+
