Quadratic Formula Introduction

Which is the graph of a quadratic equation that has a positive discriminant?

• 
• 
• 
• 

What is the value of the discriminant, b² − 4ac, for the quadratic equation 0 = x² − 4x + 5, and what does it mean about the number of real solutions the equation has?

• The discriminant is −4, so the equation has 2 real solutions.

• The discriminant is −4, so the equation has no real solutions.

• The discriminant is 35, so the equation has 2 real solutions.

• The discriminant is 35, so the equation has no real solutions.
