When a>0, the function opens up.
When a<0, the function opens down.
The roots of the quadratic equation are the x-intercepts of the curve.
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.
They open up and will be symmetrical across the y-axis.
NO!!!! On a graph a quadratic equation becomes a parabolic curve. If this curve intersects the x-axis in two places. then there are two different answers. If the curve just touches the x-axix on one place then there are two answers which both have the same valuer. If the curve does NOT touch the x-axis the there are NO solutions.
To find the gradient on a quadratic graph, you first need to determine the derivative of the quadratic function, which is typically in the form (y = ax^2 + bx + c). The derivative, (y' = 2ax + b), represents the gradient at any point (x) on the curve. By substituting a specific (x) value into the derivative, you can find the gradient at that particular point on the graph. This gradient indicates the slope of the tangent line to the curve at the chosen point.
The related link below illustrates 3 ways of drawing a curve. The techniques are easily adapted to a quadratic curve.

No, a parabola is the whole curve, not just a part of it.

A quadratic curve has the form C2X2+C1X1+C0 where (C2,C1,C0) are coefficients. If C2=0, it degrades to the equation for line. C1 or C0 may also =0

A linear function is a line where a quadratic function is a curve. In general, y=mx+b is linear and y=ax^2+bx+c is quadratic.
A parabola refers to a symmetrical open plane curve that is formed by the intersection of the cone with a plane that is parallel to its side. The curve on the other hand refers to a line that gradually deviates from being straight for some or all of its length.
The slope of your quadratic equation in general form or standard form.
Satellite dishes are paraboloid in shape - that is, a parabola (a quadratic curve) rotated around its axis. The shape has the property that rays entering it are reflected to its focus of the paraboloid. If the receiver is placed at that point, the signal is picked up from the broadcasting satellite over a wide field of view.
No, a parabola is a type of geometric curve in mathematics that can be represented by a quadratic equation. It is not related to germs, which are microorganisms that can cause disease.
