In the quadratic formula, −b±b2−4ac√2a, what is b2−4ac called?

Step-by-step explanation:

In the quadratic formula x = -b±√b²-4ac/2a, the expression b²-4ac inside the square root is called the discriminant. The discriminant is the function that determines the nature of the roots of the equation even without the constant a, b and c

If b²-4ac > 0, the roots of the equation will be real and distinct

If b²-4ac < 0 the roots of the equation will be complex number

If b²-4ac = 0 the roots of the equation will be real and the same
