Equations don't really have x intercepts, functions or curves do. They're also known as the zeros of the function.  When we set a function equal to zero we get an equation to solve, and the zeros of the function become the solutions or roots of the equation.

If a quadratic equation only has one root, that's a repeated root corresponding to a discriminant of zero.

In this example our equation is something like 2(x+3)^2=0, or expanded

2x^2+12x + 18 = 0

The discriminant d=b^2-4ac here is

d = 12^2 - 4(2)(18) = 0 \quad\checkmark

A blouse that regularly sells for $28.50 is on sale for one-third off. what is the sale price of the dress?
egoroff_w [7]
You have to multiply the original price by 1/3 and then multiplying it by 2:
y=1/3x(2)
y=1/3(28.5)(2)
y=9.50(2)
y=19
$19.5
This is 2/3 of the original price (1/3 off).
Hope I helped...
