Question 134718
There are 3 question.
1.How do you know if a quadratic equation will have one, two,or no solutions?
b^2-4ac is the discriminant:
if it is negative you have two complex number solutions
If it is zero you have two equal Real number solutions
If it is positive you have two Real number solutions
----------------------------------------------------------------
2. How do you find a quadratic equation if you are only given the solution?
If solutions are "a" and "b", the equation is y = k(x-a)(x-b)
------------------------------------------------------------------
3. Is it possible to have different quadratic equations with the same solution?
Yes because the "k" in answer #2 can have different values.
