Question

What is the value of the discriminant in the equation shown below?

x^2+3x-6=0 What is the value of the discriminant in the equation shown below?

x^2+3x-6=0 @Mathematics

Answer 1

D = b^2 - 4ac


D = 3^2 - 4(1)(-6)


D = 9 +24


D = 33


So the discriminant is 33

Answer 2

33

Answer 3

This tells us that the polynomial has 2 real solutions (and they are irrational because 33 is NOT a perfect square)

Answer 4

yeah thats true
