What are the zeros or roots of a quadratic function?

• The y-values where the function equals zero

• The x-values where the function equals zero

• The coefficients of the quadratic equation

• The points where the function has a maximum

What happens to the zeros of a quadratic function if the constant 'A' is changed?

• The zeros become imaginary

• The zeros become complex

• The zeros remain unchanged

• The zeros are affected
