Dear Student,
5x^2 + 2x + 3 is a parabola (highest degree = 2) has critical points at x = -2/10 = - 0.2(as x = - b/(2a) for the vertex of the parabola)
now,y = ax² + bx + c:
It's a minimum because the coefficient of x² is +ve so graph is concave upwards.
value of y at this lowest point of the parabola is
5*(-0.2)^2 -0.4 + 3= 2.8
Now range of 2sin x is [-2, 2], Here the 2 functions can never have same value,the curves do not intersect.
So no. of points of intersection of the 2 curves =0.
Cheers!!
