0 real solutions. There are other solutions in the complex planes (with i, the imaginary number), but there are no real solutions.

If the discriminant is negative the graph of a quadratic function will cross or touch the x-axis time s?

If the discriminant is negative, the equation has no real solution - in the graph, the parabola won't cross the x-axis.


How you find the solution of a quadratic equation by graphing its quadratic equation?

When you graph the quadratic equation, you have three possibilities... 1. The graph touches x-axis once. Then that quadratic equation only has one solution and you find it by finding the x-intercept. 2. The graph touches x-axis twice. Then that quadratic equation has two solutions and you also find it by finding the x-intercept 3. The graph doesn't touch the x-axis at all. Then that quadratic equation has no solutions. If you really want to find the solutions, you'll have to go to imaginary solutions, where the solutions include negative square roots.


Where do you find the solutions to a quadratic equation on a graph?

The solutions to a quadratic equation on a graph are the two points that cross the x-axis. NB A graphed quadratic equ'n produces a parabolic curve. If the curve crosses the x-axis in two different points it has two solution. If the quadratic curve just touches the x-axis , there is only ONE solution. It the quadratic curve does NOT touch the x-axis , then there are NO solutions. NNB In a quadratic equation, if the 'x^(2)' value is positive, then it produces a 'bowl' shaped curve. Conversely, if the 'x^(2)' value is negative, then it produces a 'umbrella' shaped curve.


Is it possible to have different quadratic equations with the same solution Why?

Yes it is possible. The solutions for a quadratic equation are the points where the function's graph touch the x-axis. There could be 2 places to that even if the graph looks different.


If the discriminant is zero the graph of a quadratic function will cross or touch the x-axis time s?

It will touch the x-axis and not cross it.


If the discriminant is zero the graph of a Quadratic function will cross or touch the x-axis time(s)?

It will touch the x-axis once.


How many times will the graph of a quadratic function cross or touch the x-axis if the discriminant is positive?

It will cross the x-axis twice.


How many times will the graph of a quadratic function cross or touch the x axis if the discriminant is zero?

Once.


If the discriminant is negative the graph of the quadratic function will cross or touch the x-axis how many times?

It would not touch or intersect the x-axis at all.


What does it mean when the graph of a quadratic function crosses the x axis twice?

When the graph of a quadratic crosses the x-axis twice it means that the quadratic has two real roots. If the graph touches the x-axis at one point the quadratic has 1 repeated root. If the graph does not touch nor cross the x-axis, then the quadratic has no real roots, but it does have 2 complex roots.


If the discriminant is negative the graph of a quadratic function will cross or touch the x-axis?

No, it will be entirely above the x-axis if the coefficient of x2 > 0, or entirely below if the coeff is <0.


How many times does the graph of the function below touch or cross the x-axis 4x2-7x 40?

Without knowing the plus or minus value of 40 it's difficult to say but in general:- If the discriminant of a quadratic equation = 0 then it touches the x axis at 1 point If the discriminant is greater than zero then it touches the x axis at 2 points If the discriminant is less than zero then it does not touch the x axis
