1. quadratic equations

A quadratic expression in one independent variable  is generally written as:

ax2+bx+c

where  are constants, and 

a0

 (otherwise, the equation becomes linear). A quadratic equation is written as:

ax2+bx+c=0

Would you like me to generate some self-assessment exercises on quadratic expressions and equations? Here are a few you can try:
