Where do you find the solutions to a quadratic equation on a graph?
The solutions to a quadratic equation on a graph are the two points that cross the x-axis. NB A graphed quadratic equ'n produces a parabolic curve. If the curve crosses the x-axis in two different points it has two solution. If the quadratic curve just touches the x-axis , there is only ONE solution. It the quadratic curve does NOT touch the x-axis , then there are NO solutions. NNB In a quadratic equation, if the 'x^(2)' value is positive, then it produces a 'bowl' shaped curve. Conversely, if the 'x^(2)' value is negative, then it produces a 'umbrella' shaped curve.
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.
When does a equation have two solutions?
Two cases in which this can typically happen (there are others as well) are: 1. The equation includes a square. Example: x2 = 25; the solutions are 5 and -5. 2. The equation includes an absolute value. Example: |x| = 10; the solutions are 10 and -10.
The difference between Quadratic function and quadratic equation?
dunctions are not set equal to a value
What are the characteristics of an absolute value equation?
Mainly that somewhere in the equation there is an absolute value, usually of an expression that involves the variable.
