Actually, the roots of a Hurwitz polynomial are in the left half of the complex plain, not on the imaginary axis. As for the reason, that is because the polynomial is DEFINED to be one that has that kind of roots.
The graph of a polynomial in X crosses the X-axis at x-intercepts known as the roots of the polynomial, the values of x that solve the equation.(polynomial in X) = 0 or otherwise y=0
Yes.

The zero of a polynomial in the variable x, is a value of x for which the polynomial is zero. It is a value where the graph of the polynomial intersects the x-axis.
Yes, the places where the graph of a polynomial intercepts the x-axis are zeros. The value of y at those places must be 0 for the polynomial to intersect the x axis.

For a line, this is the x-intercept. For a polynomial, these points are the roots or solutions of the polynomial at which y=0.
Yes.

Descartes' rule of signs (see related link) can help you determine the maximum number of real roots. If the polynomial is odd powered, then there will be at least one real root. Any even powered polynomial can be factored into a bunch of quadratics [though they may not be rational or even pretty], and any odd-powered polynomial can be factored into a bunch of quadratics and one linear (this one would have the real root). So the quadratics may have pairs of real or complex roots (having an imaginary component).To clarify, when I say complex, I'm referring to the fact that there will be an imaginary component to the root, because actually the real numbers is a subset of the set of complex numbers.The order of the polynomial will tell you how many roots it will have. If you can graph the polynomial, then you can see if it crosses the x axis. If it is a 5th order polynomial, and crosses the x axis 3 times, then there are 3 real roots (the other two roots are complex).
A real root is when a quadratic equation, or the graph of a polynomial, crosses the x axis, or when the y coordinate is equal to 0. On any polynomial to the degree of two, when graphed the line follows a smooth arc in the shape of a "U" or and upside down "U". Since there are only two prongs to the parabola, or arc, it can only cross the x axis twice, if at all. So there can only be 2 real roots.
Join the points using a smooth curve. If you have n points choose a polynomial of degree at most (n-1). You will always be able to find polynomials of degree n or higher that will fit but disregard them. The roots are the points at which the graph intersects the x-axis.
A value of the variable when the polynomial has a value of 0. Equivalently, the value of the variable when the graph of the polynomial intersects the variable axis (usually the x-axis).
false
NONE If both roots are imaginary, the means the parabola does NOT cross the x-axis at all. The place where a function crosses the x- axis has the coordinate (x,0) for some value of x. That means if you plug in x to the function or polynomial, you get 0. This is equivalent to saying that x is a root of the polynomial. But if the only roots are imaginary, there will be no point (x,0) for any real number x.
Either graph the polynomial on graph paper manually or on a graphing calculator. If it is a "y=" polynomial, then the zeroes are the points or point where the polynomial touches the x-axis. If it is an "x=" polynomial, then the zeroes are the points or point where the polynomial touches the y-axis. If it touches neither, then it has no zeroes.
