Answer:

Option B. Positive

Step-by-step explanation:

Discriminant of a quadratic function is represented by (b² - 4ac)

- If the quadratic function intersects x-axis on two distinct points,

 discriminant of the function will be positive.

  b² - 4ac > 0

- If the function when graphed, intersects x-axis exactly on one point, discriminant of the function will be equal to zero.

  b² - 4ac = 0

- If graph of the function doesn't intersect the x-axis, discriminant of the given function will be less than zero.

  b² - 4ac < 0

From the figure attached,

Graph of a quadratic function intersects at two different points, therefore, function is greater than zero or positive.

Option B. will be the answer.

The discriminant of the function is Option B. Positive.

The following information should be considered:

We know that

Quadratic function discriminant should be presented by[tex]b^2 - 4ac[/tex]

  • In the case when the quadratic function intersects x-axis on two distinct points, so here the function should be positive i.e. [tex]b^2 - 4ac >0[/tex]
  • In the case when the function at the time of graph intersected at x -axis and exact on one point so the function should be equivalent to zero. [tex]b^2 - 4ac = 0[/tex]
  • In the case when the function graph should not be intersect the x-axis, so the function should be less than zero i.e. [tex]b^2 - 4ac <0[/tex]

 

Therefore we can conclude that the discriminant of the function is Option B. Positive.
