Question
How many solutions are there for the equation using the discriminant?
- 0
- 1
- 2
- 3
Hint:
Any equation of the form p (x) = 0, where p (x) is a polynomial of degree 2, is a quadratic equation
The correct answer is: 2
Step 1 of 1:
We have given
= 64 - 32
= 32 > 0
The discriminant is greater than zero, so it has two real solutions.
We know the qadratic formula x = [-b±√(b2-4ac)]/2a
