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.
If you mean: 4x squared+7x+4 then the discriminant is -15
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
The discriminant can be positive, zero or negative.
The discriminant is 16
The discriminant is -7
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
If you mean: 4x squared+7x+4 then the discriminant is -15
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.
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
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
The discriminant is 0.

The discriminant is 16
The discriminant is -7
The discriminant is 88.
The discriminant can be positive, zero or negative.
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.
