Mia, Sophia, and Ethan are in a heated debate about quadratic equations. They are trying to figure out what the discriminant of a quadratic equation is. Can you help them?
Mia thinks the discriminant of a quadratic equation is always equal to zero.
Sophia argues that the discriminant of a quadratic equation is the expression b2 - 4ac.
Ethan believes that the discriminant of a quadratic equation is the product of the coefficients a, b, and c.
