Problem 53 of 7
Determine the number of real intersections for y=(x+1)^2, y=0.
Using a hint is okay. It just tells the trainer to give you a little more review.

1. Set the equations equal or reason from the graph position.
2. Use the discriminant or vertex comparison to count real solutions.
3. Classify as two crossings, one tangent point, or none.
Use the worked steps, then substitute the final answer back into the original relationship to confirm it satisfies the prompt.
