    Rearrange the equation so that it becomes: 5zsquare - 2z + 7
    The discriminant is supposed to be = bsquare - 4ac
    So the discriminant for this one becomes= (-2)square - 4(5)(7)
                                                              =  4 - 140
               &nbs
    p;           &n
    bsp;           
               &nbs
    p;           =  -136
    Now the answer is negative which means it is less than zero, and this implies that there are no real roots.
