How many times does X squared minus 4X -12 cross the X axis

Mathematics

We can solve this problem using discriminant.

x^2-4x-12's discriminant is

(-4)^2-4*-12=16+48 which is clearly larger than 0

This means that it crosses over the axes 2 times.

In case you don't know what discriminant is, its in equation ax^2+bx+c

the discriminant is b^2-4ac.

If its positive it has 2 crosses with x axis, if negative then 0 crosses, if 0 then 1 cross.

Hope this helped at least a little bit :D

Step-by-step explanation:

Use the distributive property-

To “distribute” means to divide something or give a share or part of something. According to the distributive property, multiplying the sum of two or more addends by a number will give the same result as multiplying each addend individually by the number and then adding the products together.
