Quadratics

Quadratics refer to a specific type of polynomial function of degree two, typically expressed in the standard form: \[ f(x) = ax^2 + bx + c \] where: - \(a\), \(b\), and \(c\) are constants, - \(a \neq 0\) (if \(a = 0\), the equation would be linear, not quadratic), - \(x\) is the variable.
