To discriminate against someone is to unfairly judge them. Normally the passing grade for an exam might be 70% but because I don't like you for some reason I am going to fail you, even though you achieved a grade of 75% and I passed other people with a lower grade than yours. I am discriminating against you.
Discrimination means exclusion of or a specific action done to one person because of a specific quality of theirs. It stems from the disposition of looking down on someone who you view as lower then yourself for color, race, or religion. It can take on a very ugly face, it is almost always irrational and it makes you unable to act normally around the person you have prejudice toward. This causes friendships to never happen and it makes you dislike or hate someone without getting to know them. Often it is caused by family beliefs and it only can be broken by letting go of your pride and caring for the very people you hate, that's one way that we can get rid of this form of hatred.
Discrimination is never a mental state, it is SOLELY conduct. An employer must DO something, ACT on a decision, before it could be found illegally discriminatory. The employers intention is irrelevant - even employers who "look down" on nobody can easily make a technical violation of Title VII.
For examples, ALL "Diversity Plans" which are not designed to eliminate statistical discrimination are violations of Title VII, even if the employer meant to be non-racist.

It means to distinguish. Sometimes this can be a good thing if you are discriminating based on relevant factors. Being able to tell a Veuve Cliquot from a cooking sherry shows a discriminating taste, and that is a good thing. Discriminating between people on their race is making a distinction based on irrelevant factors, and that is a bad thing.

What is the value of the discriminant of the polynomial 4x squared 7x 4?
If you mean: 4x squared+7x+4 then the discriminant is -15
How do you find how many x intercepts the parabola has using the discriminant?
If the discriminant is negative, there are 0 interceptsIf the discriminant is zero, there is 1 interceptIf the discriminant is positive, there are 2 intercepts
What is the discriminant of the polynomial 2x2 5x 4?
The discriminant is -7
What is the discriminant of x squared equals 4?
The discriminant is 16
What are the three outcomes of a discriminant?
The discriminant can be positive, zero or negative.
What does the discriminant tell you?
The discriminant tells you how many solutions there are to an equation The discriminant is b2-4ac For example, two solutions for a equation would mean the discriminant is positive. If it had 1 solution would mean the discriminant is zero If it had no solutions would mean that the discriminant is negative
What is the value of the discriminant of the polynomial 4x squared 7x 4?
If you mean: 4x squared+7x+4 then the discriminant is -15
In the quadratic equation ax2 plus bx plus c 0 if b2 - 4ac?
If you mean b^2 -4ac then it is the discriminant of a quadratic equation. If the discriminant equals 0 then the equation has 2 equal roots. If the discriminant is greater than 0 then the equation has 2 different roots. If the discriminant is less than 0 then it has no real roots.
How do you tell if a discriminant is positive negative or zero?
With the standard notation, If b2 < 4ac then the discriminant is negative If b2 = 4ac then the discriminant is zero If b2 > 4ac then the discriminant is positive
How do you find how many x intercepts the parabola has using the discriminant?
If the discriminant is negative, there are 0 interceptsIf the discriminant is zero, there is 1 interceptIf the discriminant is positive, there are 2 intercepts
What is the discriminant of the equation X2-10?
12
What is the discriminant of 2x2 plus 4x - 9?
The discriminant is 88.
What is the discriminant of the polynomial 9x2 - 18x 9?
The discriminant is 0.
What is the discriminant of the polynomial 2x2 5x 4?
The discriminant is -7
What is the discriminant of x squared equals 4?
The discriminant is 16
What are the three outcomes of a discriminant?
The discriminant can be positive, zero or negative.
If the discriminant is zero then there are no imaginary solutions?
Yes, if the discriminant is zero, then there will be a double root, which will be real.Also, If the discriminant is positive, there will be two distinct real solutions. But if the discriminant is negative, then you will have two complex solutions.
