What is the discriminant D of the equation? x2 – 2x + 2 = 0

OpenStudy (kamibug):

b^2 - 4ac

OpenStudy (anonymous):

I don't understand

OpenStudy (kamibug):

The variables represent the coefficients in your equation. a = 1 b = -2 c = 2

OpenStudy (anonymous):

D=?

OpenStudy (kamibug):

Plug them in and simplify to find the discriminant (D). (-2)^2 - 4(1)(2) :)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

-4?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

I just want to make sure, would that be correct?

OpenStudy (kamibug):

Correct! ^.^
