Yes, it's possible. eg, x^2 + 4 = 0
-----------
t^2 + 10 = 6t
t^2 - 6t + 10 = 0

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 -4 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 -4 is + or - .

The solution is , or
Here's your graph:

---------------
t = 3 ± i
No real number solutions.

Hi,
Yes, when b^2 - 4ac < 0 in the quadratic equaton ax^2 + bx + c = 0
that will result in being an imaginary number.
solving using the quadratic equation
t^2 - 6t + 10 = 0




this quadraic equation has no real-number solutions
