Yes. For example, the equation x2 = 2, which in standard form is x2 - 2 = 0, has the two solutions x = square root of 2, and x = minus square root of 2.
Yes it is quite possible
Using the quadratic equation formula: x = -5-/+ the square root of 7
A quadratic equation.
Yes. You can calculate the two roots of a quadratic equation by using the quadratic formula, and because there are square roots on the quadratic formula, and if the radicand is not a perfect square, so the answer to that equation has decimal.
By using the quadratic equation formula
By using the quadratic equation formula or by completing the square
Square
Definitely.The equation [ x^2 = 4 ] has two solutions.x = +2x = -2The square root of any number can be a positive number or its negative. The solution for a quadratic equation often has two different values. However having two different values is still a single solution.
A quadratic equation
When you graph the quadratic equation, you have three possibilities... 1. The graph touches x-axis once. Then that quadratic equation only has one solution and you find it by finding the x-intercept. 2. The graph touches x-axis twice. Then that quadratic equation has two solutions and you also find it by finding the x-intercept 3. The graph doesn't touch the x-axis at all. Then that quadratic equation has no solutions. If you really want to find the solutions, you'll have to go to imaginary solutions, where the solutions include negative square roots.
A quadratic equation has only one distinct solution when its discriminant (the part of the equation under the square root in the quadratic formula) is zero. This occurs when the equation can be expressed in the form ( (x - r)^2 = 0 ), where ( r ) is the repeated root. In this case, the parabola touches the x-axis at a single point, indicating that there is only one unique solution. Thus, the equation has a double root, rather than two distinct solutions.
Because it's part of the quadratic equation formula in finding the roots of a quadratic equation.
