### Instruction: help me answer this question Find the discriminant of the quadratic equation x^2 + x + 1/√2 = 0., think step by step
### Assistant:  , The answer is The discriminant (D) of the quadratic equation ax^2 + bx + c = 0 is given by the formula D = b^2 - 4ac. For the given equation, a = 1, b = 1, and c = 1/√2. Substituting these values into the formula, we get D = (1)^2 - 4*1*1/√2 = 2 - 2/√2 = 2*(√2 - 1).
