2 real solutions

Work Step by Step

When the discriminant is positive, the quadratic equation will have two real solutions. When the discriminant is 100, the solutions will be rational numbers since the $\pm \sqrt 100$portion of the quadratic formula will simplify to $\pm 10$. This will result in two rational solutions.
