How many real solutions correspond to x-intercepts based on the graph? (1 point) Responses 0 0 2 2 3 3 1

1 answer

To determine how many real solutions correspond to x-intercepts based on a graph, we look at the points where the graph crosses or touches the x-axis. Each point where the graph crosses the x-axis represents a distinct real solution.

Without the actual graph, I can't provide a specific number of x-intercepts; however, you can analyze the graph yourself by counting how many times it intersects the x-axis. Here’s the guideline:

  • If the graph does not touch the x-axis at all, then there are 0 real solutions.
  • If the graph touches the x-axis at one distinct point, then there is 1 real solution.
  • If it crosses the x-axis at two distinct points, there are 2 real solutions.
  • If it touches the x-axis at one point but also crosses at others, that still generally counts as two solutions (the touch counts as a repeated root).
  • If it crosses at three distinct points, then there are 3 real solutions.

Please review the graph carefully to select the correct answer based on the given options.
