Hello from MrBillDoesMath!

Discussion:

For the quadratic ax^2 + b^x + c, the discriminant is b^2 - 4ac. In our case, the discriminant is

(-20)^2 - 4 (4)(25) =

400      - 4 (100)   =

0

(This means the polynomial has a duplicate root. In fact it factors as          (2x-5)^2       ).

Thank you,

MrB

-12x+ 25 hopes this helps

Step-by-step explanation:

4x 2 - 20 x + 25

8x - 20x +25

-12x + 12

to find the total number of combinations, multiply the quantity of each item by each other:

2 pairs of shoes x 3 pairs of shorts = 6 different combinations.
