Quadratic equation (in our case ) has the following solutons:



For these solutions to exist, the discriminant should not be a negative number.

First, we need to compute the discriminant : .

The discriminant -8 is less than zero. That means that there are no solutions among real numbers.

If you are a student of advanced school algebra and are aware about imaginary numbers, read on.


In the field of imaginary numbers, the square root of -8 is + or - .

The solution is

Here's your graph:

In other words, this polynomial has no real roots (real numbers as roots), it only has complex roots.
