Question

Using the discriminant, how many real solutions does the following quadratic equation have? X^2+6x+10=0

Answer 1

Answer: No real solutions

Explanation:

The discriminant can tell you how many solutions a quadratic equation has. The formula is b²-4ac. This also comes from the quadratic equation.

6²-4(1)(10)

36-40

-4

Since the discriminant is less that 0, there are no roots.
