Question

Look at the picture of the graph below, select all the answers that apply to the graph.

Answer 1

The parabola has 2 solutions (when y = 0. So x = -5 and x = -3)

And the discriminant is a positive value. (Since there are 2 solution or roots, that means the discriminant value must be positive)
- if you want to check to make sure it’s a positive value (visually the graph tells you it’s positive) you would find the equation of the curve then plug in the formula b^2-4ac

Answer 2

The parabola has 2 solutions
Solution 1: (0,-5)
Solution 2: (0,-3)
