Answer:
After evaluating we get [tex]b^2-4ac = 52[/tex].
Step-by-step explanation:
Given:
[tex]b^2-4ac[/tex]
We need to evaluate the expression with a =3, b =8 and c= 1
Solution:
To evaluate the expression we will first substitute the values of a,b and c in the expression we get;
[tex]b^2-4ac = 8^2-4\times3\times1[/tex]
Now by using PEDMAS which states first operation needs to perform here is the exponent function.
so we get;
[tex]b^2-4ac = 64-4\times3\times1[/tex]
Now next operation to be performed is multiplication.
[tex]b^2-4ac = 64-12[/tex]
And finally we will perform subtraction operation.
[tex]b^2-4ac = 52[/tex]
Hence After evaluating we get [tex]b^2-4ac = 52[/tex].
