Write the discriminant of the quadratic (x+5)2=2(5x-3)

Answer» Given a quadratic equation :x² + bx + c = 0The discriminant is given by:d = b² - 4acWhere a , b and c are constants.From the question we have :(x + 5)² = 2(5x - 3)x² + 10x + 25 = 10x - 6Collecting the like terms together we have :x² + 10x + 25 - 10x + 6 = 0x² + 31 = 0In our case :b = oc = 31a = 1Doing the substitution we have :d = - 4 × 1 × 31 = -124= -124
