(x - 4)(x + 3) foil y = x^2 - x - 12 ----------------------
A quadratic function is a function where a variable is raised to the second degree (2). Examples would be x2, or for more complexity, 2x2+4x+16. The quadratic formula is a way of finding the roots of a quadratic function, or where the parabola crosses the x-axis. There are many ways of finding roots, but the quadratic formula will always work for any quadratic function. In the form ax2+bx+c, the Quadratic Formula looks like this: x=-b±√b2-4ac _________ 2a The plus-minus means that there can 2 solutions.
If the quadratic function is f(x) = ax^2 + bx + c then its inverse isf'(x) = [-b + +/- sqrt{b^2 - 4*(c - x)}]/(2a)
Yes. A quadratic function can have 0, 1, or 2 x-intercepts, and 0, 1, or 2 y-intercepts.
A polynomial of degree 2.
