Answer:
No <em>real</em> solutions (or has two complex roots)
Step-by-step explanation:
The discriminant, <em>b</em>² - 4<em>ac</em>, is the expression (<u><em>radicand </em></u>) of the quadratic equation:
.
The value of the discriminant determines the <u>nature</u> and the <u>number of solutions</u> given by the quadratic equation.
A discriminant with a negative value (or b² - 4ac < 0 ) means that the quadratic equation has no real solutions or two complex solutions. Quadratic equations with a negative discriminant also have no x-intercepts; thus, its graph will not cross the x-axis.
Answer:
-16
Step-by-step explanation:
k = 3
-2(3) + 5 = -1
k = 4
-2(4) + 5 = -3
k = 5
-2(5) + 5 = -5
k = 6
-2(6) + 5 = -7
(-1) + (-3) + (-5) + (-7)
= -16
