Question 155983: Evaluate the discriminant b^2-4ac. Then use the answer to state how many real-number solutions exist for the equation.
〖y=x〗^2+8x+16
Answer by SAT Math Tutor(36) (Show Source): You can put this solution on YOUR website!
In this case, a = 1, b = 8, and c = 16 so
When the discriminant equals 0, by rule, you have 1 real solution.
