Question

What is the discriminant of 3 x squared minus 10 x = negative 2?

Answer 1

it can also be explained as A on edg :)

Answer 2

Answer:

The discriminant of 3 x squared minus 10 x = negative 2 is  76

Explanation:

Given:

$3x^2-10x=-2$

$3x^2-10x+2=0$..........(1)

We can find out the discriminant by using the formula

$D=b^2-4ac$

So from the equation (1)

We have b = -10

a= 3

c= 2

Now put all these values of a,b and c in the formula of discriminant to find out the value of D

So  

$D=(-10)^2-4(3)(2)$

$D=100-24=76$

D=76

So the discriminant of the given quadritic equation = 76
