Answer:

D

Step-by-step explanation:

the first term is 8, the ratio is 1/2 ( 8*1/2 = 4, 4*1/2 = 2, 2*1/2 = 1)

the formula for an explicit geometric formula is :

a_{n} = a_{1} * r^{(n-1)}

plug in your numbers :

a_{n} = 8 * (\frac{1}{2}) ^{(n-1)}

The discriminant of the function is 120, and the function has 2 different x-intercepts

<h3>How to determine the discriminant?</h3>

The function is given as:

f(x) = -7x^2 + 8x + 2

The discriminant (d) is calculated using:

D =b^2 - 4ac

So, we have:

D = 8^2 - 4 * (-7) * 2

Evaluate

D = 120

Because the value of D is greater than 0, then the function has 2 different x-intercepts
