The discriminant of $6x^2+bx+2=0$ is 1, then what is the value of b?
Given: The equation $6x^2+bx=2=0$ has discriminant 1.
To do: We need to find the value of b.
Solution:
we know discriminant of quadratic $ax^{2} + bx + c = 0$
$ax^ 2 + bx + c = 0, is b^{2} -4acb^ 2 −4ac$
Here, a = 6, b = b, c = 2
It is given $b^{2} - 4ac = 0b^ 2 −4ac=0$
So,$ b^{2} - 4\times 6\times 1$
= $1b^ 2 −4\times6\times2$
=$1 b^{2} - 24 = 1b^ 2 −48$
=$1 b^{2} = 25b ^2 =49a$
$b = +7$ or $b = -7$
So, the answer is either the value of b is +7 or - 7
