QUADRANTS +^ THE^ DISCRIMINANT

  • when (^) solving a linear (^) and quadratic equation,^ there^ can^ i
  • intersect twice
  • intersect once
  • not (^) intersect

this can be calculated using the discriminant (B2-4AC)

if it^ is^ >^0 =^ two^ solutions

if it^ is^ =^0 =^ one^ solution

if it^ is^ <^0 = no real^ solutions
