Question

Daflo just asked their first question! y = -3x^2-6x-5 trying to find the x-intercept.

Answer 1

36 -4(-5)(-3) is negative

Answer 2

no x intercepts

Answer 3

use the determinant -- \[b ^{2}-4ac\]

make y=0. so you have \[-3x ^{2}-6x-5=0\]

a=-3
b=-6
c=-5

so its \[(-6)^{2} -4(-3)(-5)\]

36-60 = -24

the determinant is negative, so you have no REAL solutions, but 2 complex nuber solutions

Answer 4

number*

Answer 5

whoops! i meant Discriminant, hahaha sorry about that

Answer 6

so the answer is zero?

Answer 7

the answer is "no x intercepts"; not even zero

Answer 8

okay?

Answer 9

never touches, and when you never touch, you cant intercept

Answer 10

thanks.

Answer 11
