In the case of a quadratic function what is the number of x and y intercepts the function may have?
The greatest possible number of intercepts is: 2 of one axis and 1 of the other axis.The smallest possible number of intercepts is: One of each axis.
Why does the discriminant determine the number and type of the solutions for a quadratic equation?
A quadratic equation is wholly defined by its coefficients. The solutions or roots of the quadratic can, therefore, be determined by a function of these coefficients - and this function called the quadratic formula. Within this function, there is one part that specifically determines the number and types of solutions it is therefore called the discriminant: it discriminates between the different types of solutions.
What is the greatest number of y-intercepts a line can have?
There is no limit to the number of y-intercepts a line can have. The axis itself is a line and it intercepts itself an infinite number of times.
What is the greatest number of intercepts for a line?
infinity
What is the x intercept of 9?
