Answer:
No real solutions (or has two complex roots)
Step-by-step explanation:
The discriminant, b² - 4ac, is the expression (radicand ) of the quadratic equation:
[tex]x = \frac{-b +/- \sqrt{b^{2}-4ac} }{2a}[/tex].
The value of the discriminant determines the nature and the number of solutions given by the quadratic equation.
A discriminant with a negative value (or b² - 4ac < 0 ) means that the quadratic equation has no real solutions or two complex solutions. Quadratic equations with a negative discriminant also have no x-intercepts; thus, its graph will not cross the x-axis.
