The quadratic functionquadratic functionquadratic function defined by the formula f(x)=ax2+bx+c:

  • has two real roots xIndeks dolny 1 and xIndeks dolny 2 if and only if the discriminant ∆ is positive. Then we can write the formula of the function in the factored form:

f(x)=a(x-x1)(x-x2)

where: x1=-b-2a, x2=-b+2a,

  • has exactly one rootone root one root x if and only if the discriminant ∆ is equal to zero. Then we can write the formula of the function in the factored form:

f(x)=a(x-x0)2

where: x0=-b2a,

  • has no roots only and only if the discriminant ∆ is negative. Then we cannot write the formula of the function f in the factored form.
