I came across this problem prepping for my SAT and I have absolutely no idea how to solve it even slightly without working through all the possible multiple choice answers.
I need to find what b must equal for there to be no solutions to the equation. I'm way out of practice for math since my last was Pre-Calc, so I've forgotten a good bit of it.
Any help is greatly appreciated, thank you.[/FONT]
