Answers

Answered by GPT 3.5
The discriminant of a quadratic equation in the form of ax^2 + bx + c = 0 is given by the expression b^2 - 4ac. In this case, the equation is 12x^2 - 9x - 7 = 0, so the discriminant is calculated as follows:

Discriminant = (-9)^2 - 4 * 12 * (-7)
= 81 + 336
= 417

Therefore, the discriminant of the equation 12x^2 - 9x - 7 = 0 is 417.
