Answer:


16

Explanation:

The discriminant of a quadratic in standard form
ax^2+bx+c is given by
b^2-4ac.

The quadratic
-3=-x^2+2x in standard form is
-x^2+2x+3. Thus, we can assign the following values:


  • a of -1

  • b of 2

  • c of 3

Therefore, the discriminant of this quadratic is
2^2-4(-1)(3)=4+12=\boxed{16}
