My mind is mush at this time, can someone please help?  It is a three part question.  The instructor wants us to write three (3) quadratic equations with a,b,and c (coefficients of x^2, x, and the constant) as: 1: Integers, 2: Rational numbers, and 3: Irrational numbers. I need this by 3 a.m. central time.  Please help! This is for Intermediate Algebra and does not come from a book that I know of. </SPAN>\n" );
