Math Help!!! How many x-intercepts does the graph of the function have?

It can have however many x intercepts it wants, 

<span>BUT, to be a function it must pass the vertical line test. </span>
<span>this means you have to look at the graph and see if a vertical line drawn anywhere hits the graph more than once. </span>
<span>if it hits it more than once, it is NOT a function. 
</span>
An example is a polynomial function to the infinite degree. That is 
f(x) = lim (n --> infinity) [ x^n] 
but only 1 y intercept (vertical line test remember)

If you are given a parabolic function you can algebraically determine the type of zeros of the function with the discriminant, which is b^2-4ac.

The discriminant is derived from the quadratic formula, x= \frac{-b+/- \sqrt{b^2-4ac} }{2a}.
The discriminant is what's inside the square root (the radicand).

If the radicand is negative, there will be 2 imaginary numbers (there are two because of the plus or minus before the square root)
If the radicand is positive, there will be 2 real numbers.
If the radicand is zero, the answer will be 0.

Therefore,
If discriminant is negative, there are 2 complex zeros.
If discriminant is positive, there are 2 real zeros.
If discriminant is zero, there is one real zero.

A zero is basically the x-intercept.

Ebba is buying bulk fabric.
-Dominant- [34]

Answer:

To find the cost per yard, divide the cost by the amount:

p: 6.25 / 6.5 = 0.96  -->  The cost per yard is $0.96

r: 3 /4 = 0.75  -->  The cost per yard is $0.75

b: 8.1 /8.5 = 0.95  -->  The cost per yard is $0.95

s: 7.2 / 6 = 1.2  --> The cost per yard is $1.20

In order from cheapest to most expensive:

Red

Brown

Purple

Which expression represents the following calculation?
mrs_skeptik [129]

Answer:

7.4 x (87-24)

Step-by-step explanation:

The translation is that you multiply the difference of two numbers. So you must get the difference first, that's why you put parenthesis around 87-24. Your answers are sideways and are hard to read, so I'll just give you the correct answer without the answer choice.
