determinant: 
(a) 
D<0 means there are no real roots. there are two complex roots with imaginary components.
(b) D=16+20=36>0
D>0 means there are two real roots
(c) D = 20^2-4*4*25 = 0
D=0 means there is one real root with multiplicity 2
12ab will be the right answer.
Since 24a^3 = 12ab(2a^2)
And 36ab^2 = 12ab(3b)
The last graph is the answer
5.46 to 3 sig figs means the range is {5.455,5.465} and 17.74 means the range {17.735,17.745}.
p=q²/r has a maximum value when q=5.465 and r=17.735 and a minimum value when 5.455 and r=17.745.
So the range of p is 1.6769 to 1.6840. When we have 2 decimal places we get p=1.68 which accommodates the maximum and minimum values of the range. So 2 decimal places is a suitable degree of accuracy, or we could say 3 significant figures.
<span>-1<0
so use 2x+1
2(-1)+1=-2+1=-1
-
</span><span>F(-1) means "Evaluate F(x) when x=-1"
Since -1 is less than 0, this means that F(x) = 2x+1. This is because F(x) = 2x+1 when x < 0</span>
