(Y squared) minus (2 times Y) minus 15 = 0. The left side can be factored into: (Y - 5)(Y + 3) There are two different values for Y that will work for the above equation.
An equation of the second degree, meaning it contains at least one term that is squared.
A biquadratic is a polynomial which involves only the second and fourth powers of a variable.
-8x2 - 2x + 8 this is a quadratic equation or a second order polynomial it is a second order polynomial because it has a term in x2 For every polynomial we name it according to the highest power term in the equation.......
A quadratic equation is a polynomial equation of the form ( ax^2 + bx + c = 0 ), where ( a ), ( b ), and ( c ) are constants, and ( a \neq 0 ). In the context of differential equations, a second-order linear differential equation can resemble a quadratic equation when expressed in terms of its characteristic polynomial, particularly in the case of constant coefficients. The roots of this polynomial, which can be real or complex, determine the behavior of the solutions to the differential equation. Thus, while a quadratic equation itself is not a differential equation, it plays a significant role in solving second-order linear differential equations.

A quadratic equation.
A polynomial is an equation with more than 1 term. A term could be a constant, or a power of a variable (denoted by a letter, like x) times a constant. The order of the polynomial is determined by the highest power of the variable.A quadratic is a second order polynomial, because the highest power of x is x2.A first order polynomial has x1 (which is just x) as the highest power.
An equation of the second degree, meaning it contains at least one term that is squared.
The polynomial equation is x2 - x - 1 = 0.

Those words refer to the degree, or highest exponent that modifies a variable, or the polynomial.Constant=No variables in the polynomialLinear=Variable raised to the first powerQuadratic=Variable raised to the second power (or "squared")Cubic=Variable raised to the third power (or "cubed")Quartic=Variable raised to the fourth powerQuintic=Variable raised to the fifth powerAnything higher than that is known as a "6th-degree" polynomial, or "21st-degree" polynomial. It all depends on the highest exponent in the polynomial. Remember, exponents modifying a constant (normal number) do not count.
The highest power of the variable is 2, so it is a second degree polynomial.
(x,y) or (variable that cones first in the alphabet, variable that comes second in the alphabet)
True Yes. Although the term 'quad' stands for four, a quadratic equation is a polynomial of second degree.
isolate the variable
An equation where some variable is raised to the second power.
