What is the discrimination of 3x^2+6x=2

60

D>0, there are 2 distinct real roots

Explanation:

3x2+6x-2=0

a=3, b=6, c=-2

The formula for discriminant is b2-4acSubstitute the given values.

b2-4ac

(6) 2-4 (3) (-2)

=60

therefore, D>0, there are 2 distinct real roots

Discriminant, not discrimination. I'm not discriminating against you.; )

You must re-write 3x^2+6x=2 in standard form: 3x^2 + 6x - 2

Here a=3, b=6 and c = - 2

The discriminant is b^2 - 4ac. Here, it's 6^2 - 4 (3) (-2), or 36 + 24, or 60.

This quadratic has two real, unequal, zeros.
