Question

PLEASEE HELP ANYONEE

Consider the function f(x) = 3x^2 + 7x + 2.
What is the value of the discriminant?
How many x-intercepts does this function have?
What are the number of zeros for this function?

Answer 1

Discriminant i s b^2 - 4*a*c
7^2 - 4*3*2
49 - 24
25
Since the discriminant is a perfect square, there will be 2 x-intercepts and 2 zeros.
