Answer:
16
Step-by-step explanation:
Discriminant of a quadratic equation ax² + bx + c = 0 is given by b² - 4ac.
In question,
a = 1 , b = -2 , c = - 3
∴ discriminant = b² - 4ac
= (-2)² - 4(1)(-3)
= 4 + 12
= 16
Discriminant of the given equation is 16.

Given,
- X² - 2X - 3 = 0
To Find,
- The Value of Discriminant for given Quadratic Equation.
Solution,
X² - 2X - 3 = 0
The Quadratic Equation is in The form of;
AX² + BX + C = 0
X² - 2X - 3 = AX² + BX + C
→ (1)(X²) + (-2)(X) + (-3) = AX² + BX + C
A = 1
B = -2
C = -3
Discriminant = B² - 4AC
→ Discriminant = (-2)² - 4(1)(-3)
→ Discriminant = 4 - (-12)
→ Discriminant = 4 + 12
→ Discriminant = 16
Required Answer,
The Value of Discriminant is 16.
