If x = -3 is the only x-intercept of the graph of a quadratic equation, which statement best describes the discriminant of the equation? the discriminant is negative the discriminant is -3. the discriminant is 0. the discriminant is positive

The discriminant is 0

Step-by-step explanation:

Since the graph of the quadratic equation has only one x-intercept, we can conclude that the quadratic has only one real root.

If a quadratic equation has only one real root, then the discriminant is 0

If x = -3 is the only x-intercept of the graph of a quadratic equation then the discriminant is 0

180

step-by-step explanation:

12-2=10

20-2=18

18x10=180

3< x< 5

step-by-step explanation:

|x - 4| < 1

there are two solutions, one positive and one negative.   remember to flip the inequality when taking the negative solution

x-4 < 1       x-4 > -1

add 4 to each side

x-4+4 < 1+4       x-4+4 > -1+4

x< 5                 x> 3

3< x< 5
