Are there no real solutions if a quadratic function is 0?
If a quadratic function is 0 for any value of the variable, then that value is a solution.
What is Nature of the zeros of a quadratic function?
If you have a quadratic function with real coefficients then it can have: two distinct real roots, or a real double root (two coincidental roots), or no real roots. In the last case, it has two complex roots which are conjugates of one another.
How are the real solutions of a quadratic equation related to the graph of the quadratic function?
The real solutions are the points at which the graph of the function crosses the x-axis. If the graph never crosses the x-axis, then the solutions are imaginary.
Can you have quadratic function with one real root and are complex root?
Yes, but in this case, the coefficients of the polynomial can not all be real.
How many roots can a quadratic function have in total?
A quadratic function can have up to two roots. Depending on the discriminant (the expression under the square root in the quadratic formula), it can have two distinct real roots, one repeated real root, or no real roots at all (in which case the roots are complex). Therefore, the total number of roots, considering both real and complex, is always two.
