Given an equation ax^{2}\pm bx\pm c=0   with value a, b, and c, where a and b is any value and c is constant, find how many solutions thus this quadratic equation have?
Examples: 
 

Input : 2x^{2}+5x+2=0Output : 2 solutionsInput : x^{2}+x+1=0Output : no solution


Solution: 
To check whether the equation has a solution or not, quadratic formula for discriminant is used.
 

The formula is given as, b^{2}-4ac


Respective conditions are given as, 
 

  • if the discriminant is positive b^{2}-4ac> 0   , then the quadratic equation has two solutions.
  • if the discriminant is equal b^{2}-4ac= 0   , then the quadratic equation has one solution.
  • if the discriminant is negative b^{2}-4ac< 0   , then the quadratic equation has no solution.


Programs: 
 

C++

// C++ Program to find the solutions of specified equations
#include <iostream>
using namespace std;
 
// Method to check for solutions of equations
void checkSolution(int a, int b, int c)
{
 
    // If the expression is greater than 0, then 2 solutions
    if (((b * b) - (4 * a * c)) > 0)
        cout << "2 solutions";
 
    // If the expression is equal 0, then 2 solutions
    else if (((b * b) - (4 * a * c)) == 0)
        cout << "1 solution";
 
    // Else no solutions
    else
        cout << "No solutions";
}

{
    int a = 2, b = 5, c = 2;
    checkSolution(a, b, c);
    return 0;
