Mary is analyzing a quadratic function f(x) and a linear function g(x). Will they intersect?

OpenStudy (prince1342):

Yes, at positive x-coordinates Yes, at negative x-coordinates Yes, at negative and positive x-coordinates No, they will not intersect

OpenStudy (mecharv):

Are you provided with the two functions or you have just the graph? The functions seems to be figure-able but still...

OpenStudy (prince1342):

no there isnt one, the pic i gave was all there was

OpenStudy (skullpatrol):

Any ideas?

OpenStudy (skullpatrol):

Hint: look at the table of values given for g(x).

OpenStudy (prince1342):

-1,0,1?

OpenStudy (skullpatrol):

Yes, plot them please...

OpenStudy (prince1342):

how?

OpenStudy (skullpatrol):

( x, y )

OpenStudy (skullpatrol):

y = g(x)

OpenStudy (prince1342):

Oh I see!

OpenStudy (skullpatrol):

( 1 , -1 ) , ( 2 , 0 ) , ( 3 , 1 )

OpenStudy (skullpatrol):

Can you answer the question now?

OpenStudy (prince1342):

Yeah, going from what you're sayin and what the problem is, it seems as though the lines don't intersect. Am i right?

OpenStudy (skullpatrol):

You got it!

OpenStudy (mecharv):

If I may attach this... to support your answer :)

OpenStudy (prince1342):

OpenStudy (skullpatrol):
