Question 1104519
<br>
If the question in fact only asks for the number and type of solutions, then all you need to do is look at the discriminant, b^2-4ac.<br>
{{{b^2-4ac = (-10)^2-4(3)(3) = 100-36 = 64}}}<br>
The discriminant is positive; there are 2 real solutions.<br>
Note the discriminant is a perfect square; that means the equation can be solved by factoring.  Many students go straight to the quadratic formula every time for solving quadratic equations; however, with a little practice solving by factoring is faster.
