Function: Function-of-x is designated f(x) [or g(x), h(x), or any other letter when the writer gets bored]
A function defines a relationship between x and y [y is the f(x)] in which for every value of x there is either exactly 1
value or y or 0 (zero) values for y. Never more than 1 value for y.

The standard form of a quadratic equation is: y = ax2 + bx + c or f(x) = ax2 + bx + c
This is the quadratic formula used to solve quadratic equations that will not factor. The “” typically yields two answers unless
the discriminant (b2 – 4ac) equals 0 (zero). Then there is only one answer.

Now, the same equation is in a function-of-x format. When f(x) = 0, these are called the “zeros of the formula” and are simply
the points at which the parabola crosses the x axis. Solve in the same way.
