create a quadratic function with two real zeros
y=(x-a) (x-b) (x-c) This is not a quadratic but you should be able to easily determine the zeros and the degree. The zeros are a, b, and c Degree is three You should be able to make a function now that is degree 2 and has 3 zeros
Two not three zeros
I'm not good at this :(
It is not hard. You can do it. Just make it to where has two distinct zeros with degree two.
Can you tell me what you don't understand in my example?
is 0=x^2+4x+1 one? @freckles
Well y=x^2+4x+1 or even y=x^2+4x I was saying earlier you need a degree 2 poly with two distinct zeros such as y=(x-a) (x-b) where you get to choose any real numbers for a and b but you must choose them diffeewbtly If you wanted in expanded form it would be y=x^2-(a+b)x+ab So if you chosen a to be 2 and b to be 1. That would give y=x^2-(2+1)x+(2)(1) Simplfyinh gives y=x^2-3x+2 Now yours I knew that would work because b^2-4ac was greater than zero
