Is this correct

OpenStudy (hafeda):

i think it is x>0

zarkam21 (zarkam21):

Useless how?

zarkam21 (zarkam21):

just help please =)

OpenStudy (hafeda):

@zarkam21 focus on your, he is a troll just ignore

OpenStudy (hafeda):

x>0 quadratic doesn't cross the x axis, so in your case it is 0 and 18

|dw:1482127654971:dw|

OpenStudy (danjs):

recall the discriminent for quadratic y = ax^2 + bx + c , is \[\sqrt{b^2-4ac}\] and the quadratic formula has that for values on the x axis, y = 0 = ax^2 + bx + c quadratic formula, solves for x \[x=\frac{ -b \pm \sqrt{b^2-4ac} }{ 2a }\]

OpenStudy (danjs):

If the sign of the descrimanent is... positive -- you will get 2 real values for x, crosses the x axis twice negative -- complex numbers as solutions for x, no intersection with x-axis zero -- you get one solution for x, it is repeated root, the graph just touches the x axis and turns around, it does not cross the axis.

OpenStudy (danjs):

This prob, does not cross the x-axis... descrimanant values are negative or zero.
