Question

Just a small question. If I am using a quadratic formula, and the last term is not there would the discriminant be b^2?

Answer 1

The discriminant is b^2-4ac

Answer 2

I know but considering that c is not there it would be equal to 0.

Answer 3

\[b ^{2}-4ac\]

Answer 4

What do you mean the c is not there?

Answer 5

Like if I have x^2+8x would that just be 64?

Answer 6

Yea, in that case, I believe the c term is 0.

Answer 7

Thank you!
