Answer:
A.-1
D.-18
Step-by-step explanation:
We are given that a graph of certain quadratic function has no x- intercept.
We have to find the possible values for the discriminant.
Consider a quadratic function
[tex]f(x)=x^2+1[/tex]
x-Intercept:It is that integer value of x for which the value of function is equal to zero.
It has no x- intercept.
Discriminant:[tex]D=b^2-4ac[/tex]
Where a=Coefficient of [tex]x^2[/tex]
b=Coefficient of x
c=constant term
a=1, b=0,c=1
[tex]D=0-4(1)(1)=-4<0[/tex]
When D<0 then, the function has no x- intercept.
Hence, the possible values for the discriminant are -1 and -18.
Option A and D are true.
Answer:
the answers are -1 and -18 because they are negative
