Find the discriminant and describe the roots for this equation x^2+3x+8=0

Step-by-step explanation:

The discriminant of a quadratic equation is  b² - 4ac.

Here, a = 1, b = 3 and c = 8, and so the value of the discriminant is:

3² - 4(1)(8) = 9 - 32 = -23

The discriminant is -23 in this case.

A negative discriminant indicates that the roots will be complex.

c. 27 units.

step-by-step explanation:

we are told that in circle a, ∠bae ≅ ∠dae.

we can see from our given diagram that in and ;

, as these are radii of our given circle.

therefore, by sas congruence postulate.

hence, side be will be equal to side de as corresponding parts of congruent triangles are congruent. so we can set an equation to find the value of x as:

now let us substitute x=17 in the expression for the length of be.

therefore, length of be will be 27 units and option c is the correct choice.
