Answer: Discriminant.


Step-by-step explanation:

1. The quadratic formula is:

x=\frac{-b+/-\sqrt{b^{2}-4ac}}{2a}

2. And the discriminant is inside the square root:

b^{2}-4ac

2. Then, if the discriminant is negative, the quadratic equation does not have real solutions, it has two imaginary solutions. If the discriminant is zero the quadratic has one solution. If the discriminant is positive, the quadratic equation has two distinct solutions.

Three fourths of a number p less than two is five sixths of another number r plus five solve for r
maw [93]
r = -3/4p - 18/5 
(or you could put 3.6 or 3 3/5 instead of 18/5)

2 - 3/4p = 5/6r + 5 
-5                     -5
-3 - 3/4p = 5/6r
 /(5/6)       /(5/6) 
-18/5 - 3/4p = r 
-3/4p - 18/5 = r
