Question 270643: If you are looking at a graph of a quadratic equation, explain how you determine where the solutions are found?
Answer by Zyzden(7)   (Show Source): You can put this solution on YOUR website!
For any given graph of a quadratic such as the 'solutions' are typically x values that make that graph zero. Thus you are looking for the x values when y = 0.
In the graph below your 'solutions' are x=2 and x=-1 since that is where the y values are 0
