Sagot :

Considering the discriminant of zero for a quadratic equation, the correct option is given by:

C. It has one real solutions.

What is the discriminant of a quadratic equation and how does it influence the solutions?

A quadratic equation is modeled by:

[tex]y = ax^2 + bx + c[/tex]

The discriminant is:

[tex]\Delta = b^2 - 4ac[/tex]

The solutions are as follows:

  • If [tex]\mathbf{\Delta > 0}[/tex], and it is a perfect square, it has 2 rational solutions.
  • If [tex]\mathbf{\Delta > 0}[/tex], and it is not a perfect square, it has 2 irrational solutions.
  • If [tex]\mathbf{\Delta = 0}[/tex], it has 1 rational solutions.
  • If [tex]\mathbf{\Delta < 0}[/tex], it has 2 complex solutions.

Discriminant of zero is [tex]\Delta = 0[/tex], hence option C is correct.
