(1)Δ=b²-4ac=(-m)²-4×1×-4=m²+16
∵m²≥0
∴m²+16 ≥0
The quadratic function y = x ^ 2-mx-4 has two different intersections with the X axis
(2)1÷x1+1÷x2=-1
(x1+x2)÷(x1×x2)=-1①
∵ when the intersection coordinates of quadratic function and X axis are (x1,0), (x2,0)
When x ^ 2-mx-4 = 0, the solution of the equation is x1, x2
According to the relationship between the root and coefficient of quadratic equation of one variable
x1+x2=-b÷a=m
x1×x2=c÷a=-4
By substituting X1 + x2 = m, x1 × x2 = - 4 into formula (1), we get
m÷-4=-1
m=4
Substituting M = 4 into quadratic function y = x ^ 2-mx-4
y=x²-4x-4
y=x²-4x+4-4-4
y=(x-2)²-8
The vertex coordinates (2, - 8)
