Please review the attached powerpoint presentation.
Answer the following Questions:

1. What is the formula for the discriminant?

2. Tell what a,b,c is from this equation -6x^2 + 7x + 25

3. Tell what a,b,c is and the roots for the following equation. x^2 + 2x +1

Answer 1

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

You haven't provided the powerpoint screens.

If ax² + bx + c = 0, then the discriminant = b² - 4ac

:::::

-6x² + 7x + 25 is not an equation; it is an expression.

a = -6, b = 7, c = 25

:::::

x² + 2x + 1  is not an equation. No equals sign.

a = 1, b = 2, c = 1

roots: x = [-2±$\sqrt{2^{2}-4*1*1}$]/[2*1] = -1
