What is true about the solutions of a quadratic equation when the radicand in the quadratic formula is negative? No real solutions Two identical rational solutions Two different rational solutions Two irrational solutions
Hint!!! \[b^2 - 4ac > 0 \longleftarrow \text{2 real solutions}\] \[b^2 - 4ac = 0 \longleftarrow \text{1 real solution}\] \[b^2 - 4ac < 0 \longleftarrow \text{no real solution}\]
which do you think answers your question? :)
two different rational solutions
when something is > 0 that means that something is positive when it's = 0 that means it's 0 when it's < 0 that means it's negative
again...which answers your question? /:)
Two irrational solutions
look at the question again...it's asking what if \(b^2 - 4ac\) is negative...which of the ones did i write represent the negative?
b2−4ac<0
and what did i write about that?
no real solution
thks
there you go
