Consider the quadratic equation: 5x2 + 2x + 1 = 0. 1) which statement is true about the roots of the given quadratic equation? a) 1 real root of multiplicity 2 b) 2 distinct real roots c) 1 complex root and 1 real root eliminate d) 2 complex roots

Hello!

In math, there is always something called the discriminant. This is represented by the equation , when a quadratic = . The discriminant tells you what roots an equation has. A discriminant of over 0 represents 2 real roots, a discriminant of 0 = 1 real root, and a discriminant of <0 is 0 real roots (2 complex roots)

Now, substitute in the values and solve. In this equation, a = 5, b = 2, c = 1.

Therefore, the discriminant is -16. This means that the equation has no real roots, and has 2 complex roots. Therefore, your answer is D.

Hope this helps!

x = 25

step-by-step explanation:

a^2+b^2=c^2

7^2+24^2=c^2

49+576=625

sqrt625=25

x=25

step-by-step explanation:

from this example, we can see that subtracting with integers is the same as adding the opposite. we can solve using a number line or by using the saying "keep, change, change" to us solve. it is important to remember that we can subtract a negative and end up with a larger number than we started with.
