Question

What is the value of the discriminant, b^2 − 4ac, for the quadratic equation 0 = x^2 − 4x + 5, and what does it mean about the number of real solutions the equation has?

Answer 1

Answer: I believe it’s B but when I solved it normally I got -36 but I guess it just dident work right because when I took away the negative it worked

Explanation:

Answer 2

b^2 - 4ac in this quadratic equation would be 16 - 20, or -4. A negative discriminant means there is no real answer to the equation.
