Finding the Discriminant of a function will tell you what kind of solutions it will have. Do you know how to do that?
b^2 - 4ac is your Discriminant formula
If the Discriminant is a positive perfect square, you will have two real solutions. If it is zero, you'll have 1 real solution. If it is positive then 2 irrational solutions and if it's negative then 2 complex solutions.
So x^2 + 2x + 2 will give you 2 complex solutions.
Therefore x^2 + 2x + 2 is your answer for h(x)
Eyeball problems. Just write them down. • One function, f(x), with two real rational solutions. f(x) = (x)(x-2) -- Done! • One function, g(x), with two real irrational solution g(x) = (x + sqrt(3))(x - sqrt(3)) -- Done! • One function, h(x), with two complex solutions. h(x) = x^2 + 1 -- Done! You may wish to multiply them out and put them in some unfactored form.
