Put the equation into general form. Use the formula for Discriminant.\r

\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "\"-6x%5E2%2B5x%2B3-1=0\"\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "\"-6x%5E2%2B5x%2B2=0\"\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "\"highlight_green%286x%5E2-5x-2=0%29\"\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "The process of completing the square to solve the equation will lead to a radical part of the expression for the solution; and the expression inside the radical (the square root function) is the Discriminant.\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "Generally for \"ax%5E2%2Bbx%2Bc=0\", the expression \"b%5E2-4ac\" is the Discriminant.
