Answer:

-4

Step-by-step explanation:

If the discriminant is negative there can be no real number solution because the square root of a negative number does not exist (in real numbers).

In the Quadratic Formula, if  [tex]b^2-4ac[/tex]  is negative, then you can't find  [tex]\sqrt{b^2-4ac}[/tex].
