Which statement about the following equation is true?2x2 – 9x + 2 = –1

First rewrite the equation in standard form: 2x² − 9x + 3 = 0. Its discriminant is b² − 4ac = (−9)² − 4(2)(3) = 81 − 24 = 57, which is greater than 0. Therefore, the equation has two real roots, so the true statement is “The discriminant is greater than 0, so there are two real roots.”
