Question 6 • CMS 2026-2027 NC Math 2 CREDIT RECOVERY

What is the discriminant of the quadratic equation 3 minus 4 x is equal to negative 6 x squared ?

Answer
A
negative 68
B
88
C
76
D
negative 56

Explanation

Rewrite the equation in standard form: 6x² − 4x + 3 = 0. Here a = 6, b = −4, and c = 3, so the discriminant is b² − 4ac = (−4)² − 4(6)(3) = 16 − 72 = −56. The correct choice is negative 56.
