First let's understand the discriminant. Discriminant is an equation of D = b²-4ac. Discriminant is to find how many solutions do the equation have. In case for Quadratic Equation, there are 3 types of solutions which are:

No solutions or D < 0 — When D < 0, the equation does not have real roots.One solution or D = 0 — When D = 0, the equation has one real root. Two solutions or D > 0 — When D > 0, the equation has two real roots.

To find discriminant graphically, we need to know that the x-axis plane represents the solutions to the equations. All equations can be drawn as a graph. Some graphs do not intersect x-axis while some graph do.

If a graph intersects x-axis, the equation for that graph has solutions. If a graph doesn't intersect x-axis, the equation doesn't have any real solutions.

You may also notice that some graphs intersect x-axis more than one point. Like I said that the x-axis represents the roots or the solutions. Intersecting x-axis "n" times means that the equation has "n" roots.

For example, if a graph intersects x-axis 8 points - the equation has 8 roots or solutions.

From the graph, the parabola intersects on x-axis just only one point. That means there is only one solution. The question asks to find the discriminant of the function. Recall that if D = 0, there's only one real root. Therefore the discriminant for the function is zero.

Answer

The discriminant for function is zero.

Answer from: Quest

rick has $1400 and sally has $1500

step-by-step explanation:

to find amount of money rick has after 10 years :

principal = $1000 , time = 10 years , rate = 4% annually

$\text{simple interest} = \frac{principal\times rate\times time}{100} \\\\\text{simple interest} = \frac{1000\times 4\times 10}{100}=\$400\\\\amount = principal + interest\\amount = 1000 + 400 = \$1400$

to find amount of money sally has after 10 years :

her friend gives to pay her $50 per year, therefore money she has after 10 years = 50 × 10 = $500

also, sally gets $1000 after 10 years,

therefore, total amount of money sally has after 10 years = 500 + 1000 = $1500

so, after 10 years : rick has $1400 and sally has $1500

Does the function satisfy the hypotheses of the mean value theorem on the given interval? f(x) = 4x^2 + 3x + 4, [−1, 1] no, f is continuous on [−1, 1] but not differentiable on (−1, 1). no, f is not continuous on [−1, 1]. yes, f is continuous on [−1, 1] and differentiable on (−1, 1) since polynomials are continuous and differentiable on . there is not enough information to verify if this function satisfies the mean value theorem. yes, it does not matter if f is continuous or differentiable; every function satisfies the mean value theorem.
