how does a graph with 2 real and 2 real equal roots look like?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

this is for a quartic function..

OpenStudy (anonymous):

aww crap im not a smart hen.... :(

OpenStudy (anonymous):

your question is incomplete, you need to specify which graph, is it linear, or quadratic or any polynomial?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

polynomial

OpenStudy (anonymous):

polynomial of degree what?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

what are the possibilities

OpenStudy (anonymous):

BACK IN THE CONVO LOL

OpenStudy (anonymous):

what do you exactly need?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

nothin jeez

OpenStudy (anonymous):

a graph with linear function looks like a straight line

OpenStudy (anonymous):

a graph with degree 2 looks like a parabola

Well i just need to know how a quartic functiion looks like with 2 real and two equal roots. It's a polynomial to a degree of 4 i think....

OpenStudy (anonymous):

its a parabola :p

OpenStudy (anonymous):

two equal roots i.e. \[\left( x-1 \right)\]

OpenStudy (anonymous):

I meant my question..

OpenStudy (anonymous):

i mean \[\left( x-1 \right)\left( x-1 \right)\]

OpenStudy (anonymous):

rite?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

IM GOIN TO BED. NITE

OpenStudy (anonymous):

No. wouldn't that be two pairs of equal roots instead of what you showed above.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

the two real roots crosses the parabola and cuts the parabola into two points the two points on x axis are the roots whereas two equal real roots just touch the parabola at one point

OpenStudy (anonymous):

OpenStudy (anonymous):

these are two equal roots :)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

*ignored* really?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

I wrote two equal and two equal roots. Not two equal roots. You have shown me a quadratic function, not a quartic.
