Answer: Two distinct real roots.
Step-by-step explanation:
Given a quadratic equation [tex]ax^2+bx+c=0[/tex], we can predict the type of solution by calculating the Discriminant (D):
[tex]D=b^2-4ac[/tex]
Identify a, b and c from [tex]5x^2- 2x-3=0[/tex].
[tex]a=5\\b=-2\\c=-3[/tex]
Substitute into the formula of the Discriminant. Then:
[tex]D=(-2)^2-4(5)(-3)\\D=64[/tex]
The discriminant obtained is greater than zero.
When [tex]D>0[/tex] the type of solution is: two distinct real roots.
ANSWER
The given trinomial will have two distinct real solutionss.
EXPLANATION
The given trinomial is
[tex]5 {x}^{2} - 2x - 3[/tex]
When we compare to
[tex] a{x}^{2} + bx + c[/tex]
, we have a=5, b=-2, c=-3
The discriminant of a quadratic trinomial helps us to predict the nature of the roots of a quadratic trinomial without necessarily solving for them.
We now use the discriminant
D=b²-4ac
to obtain,
[tex]D= {( - 2)}^{2} - 4(5)( - 3)[/tex]
[tex]D=4 + 60 = 64[/tex]
Since the discriminant is positive, the trinomial will have two distinct real solutions.
