Two axis. The x (horizontal) axis, and the y (vertical) axis.

There are infinitely many points located on the x axis.
There are four quadrants (hence the name "quad"). Draw a crossing vertical line (Y axis) and horizontal line (X axis). The areas to the "top right", "bottom right", "bottom left" and "top left" are the four quadrants. Which quadrant any given co-ordinate lies in depends upon the sign of the X & Y values. eg (+X,+Y) (+X,-Y) (-X,-Y) or (-X,+Y) respectively.
Take the first number, and move it along the horizontal (or x) axis as many spaces as the number is. If it's a positivenumber, move it to the right of 0. If it's a negative, move it to the left of 0. Ex. -2, would be 2 spaces to the left of 0.Then, take the second number and move it along the vertical (or y) axis. If it's a positive number, move it above 0. If it's a negative, move it below 0. Ex. 6 would be 6 spaces above 0.Hope this helps!
NONE If both roots are imaginary, the means the parabola does NOT cross the x-axis at all. The place where a function crosses the x- axis has the coordinate (x,0) for some value of x. That means if you plug in x to the function or polynomial, you get 0. This is equivalent to saying that x is a root of the polynomial. But if the only roots are imaginary, there will be no point (x,0) for any real number x.
