What does it mean for a quadratic equation to have one real zero?

Back

A quadratic equation has one real zero when its graph touches the x-axis at exactly one point, indicating that the discriminant (b² - 4ac) is equal to zero.

How can you check if your factorization of a quadratic equation is correct?

Back

You can check by expanding the factors back into the standard form and ensuring it matches the original equation.

What is the significance of the leading coefficient in a quadratic equation?

Back

The leading coefficient (a) determines the direction of the parabola: if positive, it opens upwards; if negative, it opens downwards.
