suppose you were solving a quadratic equation to find the x-intercepts for a quadratic function and you came to no real solutions. what does this mean about the x-intercepts for the parabola and how does it affect the parabola.
--------
No real solutions --> no x-intercepts.
The graph of the parabola would have all points above (or below) the x-axis.
eg, y = x^2 + 1
