You could have a Quadratic with 2 distinct solution meaning you have 2 different X intercepts

2 roots means the discriminan is positive in other words

D>0

When the discriminan is 0, D=0 we have exactly one x-intercept.

Discriminan D=0

and finally, if the discriminan were negative

D=0

then there is no solution or root at all.
