Using the quadratic equation an the Discriminant
- PH 9-8
- Using the discriminant

- Quadratic equations can have 1, 2, or zero real solutions. The discriminant allows us to determine the number of possible solutions before we solve.
- If the discriminant > 0, there are two real solutions
- If the discriminant = 0, there is one real solution.
- If the discriminant < 0, there are no real solutions.
