Question

Explain how the graph of a quadratic function relates to

the solutions of the related quadratic equation.​

Answer 1

The equation for a quadratic is as follows:
y = ax^2+bx+c

The first variable “a” determines whether the parabola opens up or down
The squared allows the equation to look like the parabola swoop when graphed.
The c term is the constant term

Answer 2

The zeros of a quadratic function are the solutions of the related quadratic equation. If the graph of a quadratic function crosses the x-axis, there will be two real number solutions. If the graph of a quadratic function just touches the x-axis, there will be one unique real number, or double root, solution. If the graph of a quadratic function does not cross the x-axis, there will be no real number solution.
