Step-by-step explanation:
For the quadratic equation to have 1 repeated real solution, the discriminant b² - 4ac must be zero.
=> (-z)² - 4(z - 5)(5) = 0
=> z² - 20(z - 5) = 0
=> z² - 20z + 100 = 0
=> (z - 10)² = 0
Therefore z = 10.
<span>Critical points are where the derivative is 0, i.e. where it crosses the x - axis
The Critical points lies where the derivative is 0, while it crosses the x-axis, SO, in this case the choice 3 looks like best answer for this.
