What is the value of the discriminant of the polynomial 3x²-7x plus 4?
72-4*3*4 = 1
What is the value of the discriminant polynomial 3x2 plus 6x plus 5?
b^2 - 4ac Is the discriminant. 6^2 - 4(3)(5) 36 - 60 = - 24 < 0 so, an unreal answer and no real X intercepts
What is the value of the discriminant in 2x2-10x plus 3?
2x2 + 10x - 3 The discriminant is defined as b2 - 4ac, so for this function b=10, a=2, and c=-3 So the discriminant is 100-4*2*-3 = 124
What is the value of the discriminant for the quadratic equation 2a2 7a 3 0?
The discriminant is b^2-4ac. So, b=7, a=2, and c=3. 7^2=49-4(2)(3)=49-24=25. So the discriminant is 25.
What is the value of the discriminant of the polynomial 3x2-7x 4?
The discriminant, ( first positive 4 in the constant, then negative 4 as you did not specify this ) b2 - 4ac ------------ (- 7)2 - 4(3)(4) 49 - 48 = 1 ============a positive number means two real roots ( - 4 now ) ( - 7)2 - 4(3)(- 4) 49 + 48 = 97 ============still positive and two real roots
