Canonical discriminant analysis is a dimension-reduction technique related to principal component analysis and canonical correlation. Given a classification variable and several interval variables, ...

{4}=0\) \(25+5k=0\) Rearrange to make \(k\) the subject. The discriminant is \({b^2} - 4ac\), which comes from the quadratic formula and we can use this to find the nature of the roots. Roots can ...

What type of roots the equation has can be shown by the discriminant. The discriminant for a quadratic equation \(a{x^2} + bx + c = 0\) is \({b^2} - 4ac\). And the types of root the equation has ...
