Question

PLEASE ANSWER QUESTION

Answer 1

Answer: Discriminant is zero

Explanation:

If negative, the vertex of the graph will be above the x-axis, if positive it will be below the x-axis, and zero if it is directly on the x-axis.

Answer 2

Zero

Explanation:

because, if the Discriminant of f is positive, it intersects the x-axis twice; if it’s negative, it intersects the x axis 0 times, but if it intersects the x axis or touches it in 1 point, then the Discriminant is 0!

As you can see in this graph, the x-axis and parabola only touch/intersect in 1 point, so the Discriminant of f is zero

Hope this helps!
