MATH 12V

 Question:  What can you tell about the graph of a quadratic function based on the roots you get from solving the quadratic formula for that equation? 

 Answer: you can tell alot of things about a graph by useing the discriminant. The discriminant tells you how many roots a quadratic function has.

The formula we use for discriminant is  and a quadratic formula is   by having a quadratic formula,

we know what a, b and c are equal. Therefore can put it in to the discriminant formula to find how many roots there are.

No real roots means your quadratic never has an x-intercept. One real root means it has two of the same x-intercept or you could just say one x-intercept.

To find the roots you need to quadratic function formula, Which is . To solve for the roots you put the a, b and c values in and solve for the plus then for the minus.

Example of a quadratic fomula

                                                                                                                Example of Roots

1.No real roots

2. One real root(same valued roots)

3. Two real roots.
