willow siren
#

thats hard icl

#

im playin around

#

but i think for the cirlce to intersect at 3 points

#

at one of the points the circle just touches it

#

i think one value is -16

And I think the other one is -9

#

But couldn’t p also be 0

willow siren
#

idk about 0

twilit tundra
#

It could touch x axis touch y or go through origin?

willow siren
#

oh ye

twilit tundra
#

But the question says two values so I’m not sure

willow siren
#

#
