Respuesta :
The value of the discriminant is b^2 - 4ac. So in the given trinomial, the value of the discriminant is 6^2 - 4(3)(5). The answer is -24. Thank you for posting your question. I hope this answer helped you. Let me know if you need more help.
Answer
= -24
Explanation
The discriminant helps us determine the nature of the roots of a quadratic equation
When using the quadratic formula the find the roots of a quadratic equation, the term (b²-4ac) is known as the discriminant.
Where b ⇒ coefficient of the 2nd term
a ⇒ coefficient of the 1st term
c ⇒ the 3rd term.
In the equation 3x²-6x+5, the discriminant is;
(-6)² - (4×3×5) = 36 - 60
= -24
