From we can see that , , and


Start with the discriminant formula.


Plug in , , and


Square to get


Multiply to get


Subtract from to get


So the discriminant is


Since the discriminant is greater than zero, this means that there are two real solutions.


Note: because the discriminant is a perfect square, this means that the two solutions are rational solutions.
