If the discriminant of a quadratic equation is -4 how many solutions does the equation have?
If the discriminant of a quadratic equation is less then 0 then it will have no real solutions.
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.
What is the discriminant for this equation x2-3x plus 5 equals 0?
The discriminant is -11.
How can you tell how many solutions a quadratic equation will have without solving it?
A quadratic equation can have a maximum of 2 solutions. If the discriminant (b2-4ac) turns out to be less than 0, the equation will have no real roots. If the Discriminant is equal to 0, it will have equal roots. But, if the discriminant turns out to be more than 0,then the equation will have unequal and real roots.
How can you have one solution in something that is quadratic?
b^2 - 4ac, the discriminant will tell you that a quadratic equation may have one real solution( discriminant = 0 ) , two real solutions( discriminant > 0 ), or no real solutions( discriminant < 0 ).
How are the discriminant and the graph of a quadratic equation related?
If the discriminant = 0 then the graph touches the x axis at one point If the discriminant > 0 then the graph touches the x axis at two ponits If the discriminant < 0 then the graph does not meet the x axis
How many real solutions does the following quadratic equation have by using the discriminant?
If the discriminant > 0 then 2 distinct real solutions.If the discriminant = 0 then 1 double real solution.If the discriminant < 0 then no real solutions (though there are two complex solutions).
How do you find the discriminant of a equation?
The general form of a quadratic equation is ax2 + bx + c = 0 where a is not zero, a, b and c are constants. The discriminant is b2 - 4ac
Find the value of the discriminant of each equation given X2 - 5x plus 4 equals 0?
The discriminant is 9.
How many real roots exist if the discriminant of the eqation0?
If the discriminant of a quadratic equation is 0 then it has two equal real roots.
What is the discriminant test for factorability?
For a quadratic equation the discriminant is: b2-4ac If it's = 0 then the roots are equal If it's < 0 then there are no roots If it's > 0 then there are two different roots
What is the discriminant of x2-18x plus a greater than 0?
The discriminant is the same as for the equation x^2 - 18 x + a = 0.D = 324 - 4a
