It is -2. This is negative. For instance, if you had 3 candies and your mother took away 5, you would not only have 0 candies, but you would owe your mother 2. This is expressed as a negative number. Please mark Brainliest!!!

The answer is -2.
Think of it as counting down when I’m the negative. Like the 3 + (-5). (-5)+1 is -4. So 3+(-5)=-2

B) Since the discriminant is 0, this means the equation only has one root.

C) The root is real in this case since the discriminant is not negative. Otherwise, we would have two imaginary roots if it were (remember that complex roots come in pairs)
