No.
A quadratic function is a second degree polynomial, that is, is involves something raised to the power of 2, also know as squaring. Quadratus is Latin for square. Hence Quadratic.
Oh honey, a quadratic function is a function whose rule is a polynomial of degree 2. It's like the middle child of polynomials - not too simple, not too complex, just right. So next time you see that squared term, you know you're dealing with a quadratic function, sweetie.

by synthetic division and quadratic equation
They are both polynomial functions. A quadratic is of order 2 while a cubic is of order 3. A cubic MUST have a real root, a quadratic need not.

Yes, but in this case, the coefficients of the polynomial can not all be real.
Try the quadratic formula. X = -b ± (sqrt(b^2-4ac)/2a)
A parabola is a graph of a 2nd degree polynomial function. Two graph a parabola, you must factor the polynomial equation and solve for the roots and the vertex. If factoring doesn't work, use the quadratic equation.
