    No real solutions

    Step-by-step explanation:

    Use the discriminant to determine the number of real solutions to a quadratic equation.

    The general form for a quadratic equation is ax² + bx + c

    The discriminant is b² - 4ac

    The following 3 rules apply ...

    1. If b² - 4ac > 0, then there are 2 real solutions

    2. If b² - 4ac = 0, then there is one real solution

    3. If b² - 4ac < 0 then there are no real solutions

    For this problem,

    a = 5

    b = 6

    c = 4

    Plug them into b² - 4ac ...

    6² - 4 (5) (4)

    36 - 80

    -54 so b² - 4ac < 0, there are no real solutions
