This parabola can be modeled by the quadratic function y = 0.00012x2 + 6, where x represents the distance form the axis of symmetry and y represents the height of the cables. The related quadratic equation is 0.00012x2 +6 = 0.

Calculate the value of the discriminant.

a.

-0.00056

c.

The discriminant,

\(\Delta=b^2-4ac\)

From,

\(ax^2+bx+c=0\)

So,

\(\Delta=-4(0.00012)6=-0.00288\)
