Step 1 :Given the quadratic function \(y=25x^{2}-10x+1\), we are asked to find at how many points the graph of the function intersects the x-axis.
Step 2 :The graph of a function intersects the x-axis where the y-value is zero. So, we need to solve the equation \(25x^{2}-10x+1=0\) for x.
Step 3 :We can solve this equation using the discriminant method. The discriminant of a quadratic equation \(ax^{2}+bx+c=0\) is given by \(b^{2}-4ac\).
Step 4 :Substituting the coefficients a = 25, b = -10, and c = 1 into the formula, we get the discriminant as \((-10)^{2}-4*25*1=0\).
Step 5 :The discriminant is zero, which means there is one solution to the equation. Therefore, the graph of the function intersects the x-axis at one point.
Step 6 :Final Answer: \(\boxed{A. 1}\)
