Answer: No real Root
Step-by-step explanation:
Quadratic Formula = (-b±√b^2-4ac)/2a
Equation into Formula = (-8±√8^2-4(12)(5))/2(12)
= (-8±√64-240)/24
As you can see, the equation asks us to find the square root of a Negative number (64-240). This means that the quadratic equation has no x intercept unless you were to use a radical. (I dont think you would have to do that...)
