To determine

Without solving given equation, to determine the nature of roots.

Expert Solution & Answer

Answer to Problem 1MRE

As the discriminant is negative so the roots will be imaginary conjugates.

Explanation of Solution

Given information :

Given equation 5x2−3x+2=0

Discriminant of the equation ax2+bx+c is given by the formula D=b2−4ac

Discriminant of the equation also helps us to understand the nature of the roots of the equation.

In the given equation we compare it with ax2+bx+c and put the values in discriminant formula we get,

  D=(−3)2−4(5)(2)=9−40=−36

As the discriminant is negative so the roots will be imaginary conjugates.
