Find the number of solutions of the equation 2g2 + 4g + 10 = 0 by using the discriminant.

Step-by-step explanation:

The discriminant of ax^2+bx+c=0 is b^2-4ac, in this case

4^2-4(2)10

16-80

-64

Since -64<0 there are two imaginary (or ‘complex’) solutions.

Note: if d=0, there is one real solution. if d>0, there are two real solutions.

answer: domain and range mean all possible values of x and y that could be substituted to the inequality. a solution means all possible values that make the inequality statement true. so while the range is still all real numbers, the solution is the shaded area, for which y will always be greater than the line of the function.
