f(x) = ax^2 + bx + c, where a != 0 (for obvious reason: it wouldn't be a quadratic function)
No.
A quadratic function is ax2+bx+c You can solve for x by using the quadratic formula, which, as the formula requires the use of square roots, would be tricky to put here.
Do you mean the quadratic formula? Not much; this would be more likely to be used by a scientist or engineer.
-2x2 + 9x - 12 = 0Then apply the quadratic formula.
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.

True

All you do is set the quadratic function to equal to 0. Then you can either factor or use the quadratic formula to solve for your unknown variable.

I think its the dropping of a golf ball off a building! This is because the formula for velocity when something is dropped is a quadratic formula, that is of degree 2.
The quadratic formula is used to solve the quadratic equation. Many equations in which the variable is squared can be written as a quadratic equation, and then solved with the quadratic formula.

-2x2 + 9x - 12 = 0Then apply the quadratic formula.
Try the quadratic formula. X = -b ± (sqrt(b^2-4ac)/2a)
