  • Discriminants and Quadratic Equations

    167034 Discriminants and Quadratic Equations The standard quadratic equation is given as: ax^2 + bx + c = 0 , where a, b, and c are real numbers and a > 0. The quadratic formula can be used to solve for all solutions of any quadratic equation.

  • Using the quadratic formula to solve quadratic equations

    Quadratic formula The equation has solution(s) given by the quadratic formula: Assuming a, b and c are all real numbers, this splits into 3 cases.

  • The discriminant of the quadratic equation and parabola

    The field has both an electric and a magnetic component, so it takes a pair of real numbers (one for the intensity of the electric field, one for the intensity of the magnetic field) to describe the field strength.

  • The discriminant of the quadratic equation and parabola

    In the real world, where might these imaginary numbers be used? Please see the detailed solution in the attached WORD file. (1) If the discriminant is zero, there is a repeated solution x, and this solution is real.

  • Algebra - Quadratic Equations

    This is because we get the square root of a negative number for sqrt(b^2 - 4ac) in the quadratic formula, and such numbers are not real numbers.

  • The discriminant of the quadratic equation and parabola

    (1) If the discriminant is zero, there is a repeated solution x, and this solution is real. Geometrically, this means that the parabola described by the quadratic equation touches the x-axis in a single point.

  • Quadratic equations

    The solutions to the equation will then be complex numbers (i.e., involve the imaginary unit i). Question: In the real world, where might these so-called imaginary numbers be used? 2.

  • The discriminant of the quadratic equation and parabola - y = ax2 + bx + c

    (1) If the discriminant is zero, there is a repeated solution x, and this solution is real. Geometrically, this means that the parabola described by the quadratic equation touches the x-axis in a single point.
