A quadratic function is defined by . A linear function is defined by g(x) = –0.5x + k.
a) Determine the A quadratic function is defined by . A linear function is defined by g(x) = –0.5x + k. value of k so that the line intersects the parabola at exactly one point. Write your answer to the nearest hundredth.
b) Determine the values of k so that the line intersects the parabola at two points. (___/1)
c) Determine the values of k so that the line never intersects the parabola

You don't define the quadratic function.
"A quadratic function is defined by ."
You need the quadratic function to continue.
Please repost the complete problem.
