Three numbers A, B, and C are selected at random and independently from the interval (0,1). Determine the probability that the quadratic equation Ax2+Bx+C=0 has real roots. In other words, what fraction of “all possible quadratic equations” with coefficients in (0,1) have real roots?
The solution is
P(B2−4AC≥0)≈0.2544134189822131
Is there an easy way to get this answer?
