For $A = \left(\begin{array}{ll} a & b \\ c & d \end{array}\right)$ in $\mathcal{M}_2(\mathbb{R})$, with $\varphi_A(x,y)$ the determinant of $A(x,y) = \left(\begin{array}{cc} a-x & b-y \\ c+y & d-x \end{array}\right)$ and $\mathcal{CP}_A$ the eigenvalue circle of $A$, specify, as a function of $A$, the cardinality of the intersection of $\mathcal{CP}_A$ with the $x$-axis $\mathbb{R} \times \{0\}$.
