Determine the nature of the roots: 2x^(2) +8x +3=0 a. two distinct real solutions c. cannot be determined b. no real solutions d. a unique real solution

a

Step-by-step explanation:

Given a quadratic equation in standard form ax² + bx + c = 0 (a ≠ 0 )

Then the discriminant b² - 4ac determines the nature of the roots.

• If b² - 4ac > 0 then 2 real and distinct roots

• If b² - 4ac = 0 then 2 real and equal roots

• If b² - 4ac < 0 then no real roots

Given

2x² + 8x + 3 = 0 ← in standard form

with a = 2, b = 8, c = 3 , then

b² - 4ac = 8² - (4 × 2 × 3) = 64 - 24 = 40

Since b² - 4ac > 0 then 2 real and distinct roots → a

hi there!

first we need to find out how much they are adding to each number to make the next number.

ex: 4 + 4 = 8, 8 + 8 = 16, and so on.

so continuing with 32,

32 + 32 = 64

64 + 64 = 128

128 + 128 = 256

256 + 256 = 512

4, 8, 16, 32, 64, 128, 256, 512

the 8th term of the sequence will be 512

hope this ! ~
