Answer:

12

Step-by-step explanation:

We are finding the discriminant

b^2 -4ac

2x^2 - 2x - 1 = 0​

a =2  b = -2  c = -1

(-2)^2 - 4(2)(-1)

4 +8

Answer:

[tex]b^2 - 4ac= 12[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Standard quadratic equation :

                   [tex]ax^2 + bx + c = 0[/tex]

Given equation :

                  [tex]2x^2 - 2x - 1 = 0[/tex]

From the given equation , a = 2, b = -2 , c = -1

Therefore,

              [tex]b^2 - 4ac= ( -2)^2 - ( 4 \times 2 \times (-1))[/tex]

                          [tex]=4 + 8 = 12[/tex]
