Answered by maham237 @



we know that

The discriminant of the quadratic equation of the form

 ax^{2} +bx+c=0

is equal to  (b^{2}-4ac )

we have

 3 -4x = -6x^{2}

 3 -4x = -6x^{2} \\ -6x^{2}+4x-3=0

in this problem

 a=-6\\ b=4\\ c=-3

Substitute in the formula of discriminant

 (b^{2}-4ac )=4^{2}-4*(-6)*(-3)\\   =16-4*18\\ =-56

therefore

the answer is

the discriminant of the quadratic equation is  -56
