Hello there!
This is a conceptual question about quadratic functions.
Remember that a solution of ANY function is where it intersects the x-axis, so if the quadratic function intersects the x-axis TWO times, this means that there are TWO real solutions.
Here's a list of things to remember that will help you out for quadratic functions...
•if a quadratic function intersects the x-axis twice, it has two real solutions.
•if a quadratic function intersects the x-axis once, it has one real solution and one imaginary solution.
•if a quadratic function intersects the x-axis zero times, it has zero deal solutions and two imaginary solutions.
Please NOTE: If you want to know how many solutions a polynomial function has, look at it's highest exponent. If it is 2, then it has 2 solutions whether they be real or imaginary. If it is 3, then it has 3 solutions.
Also, if one of the factors are the same for a polynomial function, the way it hits the x-axis changes! This is just some extra information to help you in the long run!
I hope this helps!
Best wishes :)

Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Given the vectors based on the number line as RS = 7y +3, ST = 5y +8, and RT = 83, the equation RS+ST = RT will be used to get the unknown.
Substituting the given equation into the expression we will have;
7y +3+5y +8 = 83
collect like terms'
7y+5y+3+8 = 83
12y + 11 = 83
12y = 83-11
12y = 72
y = 72/12
y = 6
b) Substitute y = 6 into RS and ST
Given RS = 7y+3
RS = 7(6)+3
RS = 42+3
RS = 45
For ST;
ST = 5y+8
ST = 5(6)+8
ST = 30+8
ST = 38
