Explanation:

I cannot read what equation you wrote.

but it does not matter.

a quadratic equation has always 2 solutions.

as a cubic equation has always 3 solutions.

and so on.

sometimes they can be identical like for 0 = x² (with 0 as solution 2 times).

and sometimes they can be imaginary like in -1 = x².

but there always are 2 solutions for a quadratic equation.

for example with normal numbers :

1 = x²

the solutions are sqrt(1) = ±1 = +1 and -1.
