What is the value of the discriminant?
11x^2-7x-14=0
---
D = b^2-4ac
D = 7^2-4*11*-14 = -9
-----------
2) Does it have two real solutions, two imaginary solutions, or one real solution?
Since D < 0, two imaginary solutions.

The formula is
The discriminant is
Where
Since the discriminant is positive (), and it is not zero,
there are 2 real solutions
If the discriminant were zero, there would be 1 real solution.
