Some please tell me what you get for an answer! Solve by the quadratic formula: 4x^2-3x+1=0
if u notice it, the discriminant is less than zero, so it has no real solutions
So what should I put? And what's "discriminant"?
\[x=\frac{-b \pm \sqrt{b^2-4ac}}{2a}, ax^2+bx+c=0\]
meaning the b^2-4ac part is less than zero
I know how to do it myininaya, I just got confusing answers
therefore, you can't take the square root of it
\[a \neq 0\]
what is a what is b what is c
So what would I write for an answer? Not possible?
what is a what is b what is c
i will help you if you answer my questions
Ok, Ok, a=4 b=-3 c=1
\[\frac{-(-3) \pm \sqrt{(-3)^2-4(4)(1)}}{2(4)}\]
\[\frac{3 \pm \sqrt{9-16}}{8}=\frac{3 \pm \sqrt{-7}}{8}\]
\[=\frac{3 \pm i \sqrt{7}}{8}\]
What does i mean?
imaginary \[\sqrt{-1}=i\]
not real
So is the third to last thing that you put be the answer on my test Wednesday? Or would it be some other term?
