Question 86: Is it possible for a quadratic function to have one real zero and one imaginary zero? Why? Coul you give me an example? Answer by ichudov(507) (Show Source):
You can put this solution on YOUR website! Do you mean one real root and one complex root? It is not possible if the coefficients are real numbers (not imaginary). The quadratic formula is such that for real coefficients, if there are any real roots at all, they will all be real. If you allow imaginary coefficients, it becomes easily possible. Example:
