2 lines will only interact if they share at similar point.
To test if they intersect, we should set both lines to be equal
If we give a solution, then the lines intesect
If we don't get a solution, the lines do not interact
A)
Y=2x^2 +5x +1 = 3x^2 +5x +1
0 = x^2 + x --> we can solve for a solution, therfore line intersects
B)
Y= x^2 +5x +2 = 3x^2 +5x +1
0 = 2x^2 -1 --> we can solve for a solution, therfore line intersects
C)
Y=3x^2 +5x +2 = 3x^2 +5x +1
2 = 1 --> impossible, there is no solution, therefore lines do not intersects, we can stop here
D)
Y=3x^2 +7x +2 = 3x^2 +5x +1
0 = -2x -1 --> we can solve for a solution, therfore line intersects
E)
Y=x^2 +7x +1 = 3x^2 +5x +1
0 = 2x^2 -2x --> we can solve for a solution, therfore line intersects
