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.
Yes it is.
True
The derivative of a quadratic function is always linear (e.g. the rate of change of a quadratic increases or decreases linearly).
Yes. Functions are always relations, but relations are not always functions.
No. It can also be a circle, ellipse or hyperbola.
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.

No.Some functions have no inverse.
The graph of a quadratic function is always a parabola. If you put the equation (or function) into vertex form, you can read off the coordinates of the vertex, and you know the shape and orientation (up/down) of the parabola.
Linear equations are always functions.
No. While the sum of two qudratics cannot have a power greater than two, it could have a power of 2, 1 or 0. x2 + 1 is one quadratic (2-x)(2+x) is another quadratic. Their sum is 1, a constant (power = 0).
