Question

Use the discriminant to determine how many real solutions there are to the function y = -3x2 - 3x - 1.

A. There are no real number solutions.
B. All real numbers are solutions.
C. There are two real number solutions.
D. There is only one real number solution.

Answer 1

first identify a, b and c
the discriminant is b^2 - 4 *a*c
when = 0 means only one solution
when <0 means no real solution and
when >0 means there are 2 solutions

Answer 2

so it will be c

Answer 3

-3 negative no real solution a

Answer 4

so its a
