Question

f(x)=6x^2+10x−1
What is the value of the discriminant of f?

Answer 1

hi there mate!!!

here,

6x^2+10x-1= 0

now,

comparing it with ax^2+bx+c= 0,

we get,

a= 6, b= 10,c= -1.

now,

discriminant= b^2-4ac

= (10) ^2-4×6×(-1)

= 100+ 24

= 124

here,

124> 0

hence,

the roots are real and unequal

hope this helps!! ♥❤

Answer 2

b2-4ac= 10*10-4(6)(-1)

=100+24

124 (real and distinct)
