(D) \(2\)

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

\(\mathrm{S}_1 \equiv \mathrm{x}^2+\mathrm{y}^2+4 \mathrm{x}+7=0\) \(\mathrm{S}_2 \equiv \mathrm{x}^2+\mathrm{y}^2+\frac{3}{2} \mathrm{x}+\frac{5}{2} \mathrm{y}+\frac{9}{2}=0\) \(\mathrm{S}_3 \equiv \mathrm{x}^2+\mathrm{y}^2+\mathrm{y}=0\) Radical axis (RA1):…
