Answer:
3 ways
Explanation:
We know that a parabola has a second degree equation), while a line has a first degree equation.
To get the points of intersection, we will need to solve both simultaneously.
Solving them, we can reach a maximum of two solutions, however, other scenarios are also possible.
Possible scenarios:
1- no intersection occurs as shown in the first attachment
2- one intersection occurs as shown in the second attachment
3- two intersections occur as shown in the third attachment
Based on the above, there are three ways where the line and parabola can intersect
Hope this helps :)
