Use the discriminant to determine the number and type of solutions of the equations.Your answer should be one real root, two real roots or two complex roots.
----------------------------
Circle the discriminant value.
x^2+8x-6=0
b^2-4ac = 8^2-4*1*-6 >0 so there are 2 real roots
----------------------
4x^2-4x+1=0
b^2-4ac = 4^2-4*4*1 = 0 so there are 2 equal real roots
----------------------
Solve
Use the quadratic formula.
x^4-9x^2-112=0
x^2/3-7x^1/3+10=0
-------------
