Answer:

Explanation:

a = 3

b = 3

c = 1

Discriminate = sqrt(b^2 - 4ac)

Discriminate = sqrt(9 - 4*3*1)

Discriminate = sqrt(9 - 12)

Discriminate = sqrt(-3)

What negative value means that there are no real roots and the y intercept = 1. You should always graph this kind of question, which I am doing for you. I use Desmos which is a very handy program.

You should notice that the minimum is above the x axis. That means there are no real roots, just as the discriminate tells you.
