When using the Quadratic Formula, how can you tell when a quadratic equation has only one solution/one x-intercept? When the discriminant (b2 - 4ac) is negative

When b in the quadratic formula is greater than the discriminant (b2 - 4ac).

When the discriminant (b2 - 4ac) equals zero

When the discriminant (b2 - 4ac) is not a perfect square

step-by-step explanation:

x = ±sqrt(10)

step-by-step explanation:

5 - 2x² = -15

subtract 5 from each side

5-5 - 2x² = -15-5

-2x^2   = -20

divide by -2 on each side

-2x^2   /-2= -20/-2

x^2 =10

take the square root on each side

sqrt(x^2 )=±sqrt(10)

x = ±sqrt(10)

check:

5 - 2x² = -15

+sqrt(10)

5 - 2(sqrt(10))² = -15

5 -2(10) = -15

5 -20 = -15

-15 = -15

-sqrt(10)

5 - 2(-sqrt(10))² = -15

5 -2(10) = -15

5 -20 = -15

-15 = -15

12r - 8 - 12

you have to combine like terms. below i have bolded the like terms:

12r - 8 - 12

together it combines to:

12r - 20

hope this !
