The discriminate is b^2 - 4*a*c
The general equation for a quadratic is ax^2 + bx + c
In this equation's case
a = 1
b= -5
c = - 3
Solve
(-5)^2 - 4*(1)*(-3)
25 - (-12)
25 + 12
37
Note
Since the discriminate is > 0, the roots are real and different. The roots do exist and there are 2 of them.

Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
840 in^2
Step-by-step explanation:
If the base is square and the side length is 10 inches, the areas of the base and of the top combined is 2(100 in^2).
The height of the prism comes from dividing the volume, 1600 in^3, by the area of the base, 100 in^2: It is 16 in. Then the combined areas of the four sides of the prism is 4(160 in^2).
The total surface area of the prsim is then 640 in^2 + 200 in^2, or 840 in^2.
