Find the Domain x=(-b+ square root of b^2-4ac)/(2a)
Problem
Solution
Identify the constraints for a real-valued function. For the expression to be defined, the radicand (the expression inside the square root) must be non-negative, and the denominator must not be zero.
Set the condition for the square root. The term
b2−4*a*c must be greater than or equal to zero to avoid imaginary numbers.
Set the condition for the denominator. The term
2*a must not equal zero to avoid division by zero.
Solve the denominator condition for the variable
a
Combine the requirements to define the domain of the variables
a,b, and *c The expression is defined for all real numbers such that the discriminant is non-negative and the leading coefficient is non-zero.
