What is the relation quadratic equation to linear equation?
The derivative of a quadratic function is always linear (e.g. the rate of change of a quadratic increases or decreases linearly).
What is the difference between a line graph and a linear equation?
A linear equation, when plotted, must be a straight line. Such a restriction does not apply to a line graph.y = ax2 + bx +c, where a is non-zero gives a line graph in the shape of a parabola. It is a quadratic graph, not linear. Similarly, there are line graphs for other polynomials, power or exponential functions, logarithmic or trigonometric functions, or any combination of them.
Why quadratic equation is called quadratic?
In mathematics, a quadratic equation is a polynomial equation of the second degree. The general form is Where x represents a variable, and a, b, and c, constants, with a ≠ 0. (If a = 0, the equation becomes a linear equation.) The constants a, b, and c, are called respectively, the quadratic coefficient, the linear coefficient and the constant term or free term. The term "quadratic" comes from quadratus, which is the Latin word for "square." Quadratic equations can be solved by factoring, completing the square, graphing, Newton's method, and using the quadratic formula (given below). One common use of quadratic equations is computing trajectories in projectile motion. Because it is in the form of ax^2+bx+c=0
How do you solve Quadratic functions?
All you do is set the quadratic function to equal to 0. Then you can either factor or use the quadratic formula to solve for your unknown variable.
What similarities and differences do you see between the function and linear equations?
Linear equations are a tiny subset of functions. Linear equations are simple, continuous functions.
