    Yep there are more... in fact it's an inequality.

    Re: Infinite Roots.

    my sol isnt an inequality, but when b=a^2/4 and when c=a/2, the function will have infinite roots.

    therefore, for b>0, all real a, and all real c, the function CAN have unlimited roots. again, no idea if it is correct.

    c > 0 and a = -2c and b = c.

    Think... what types of functions have infinite roots?

    Indeed periodic functions like those (not all though of course). Any others?

    Re: Infinite Roots.

    when i did it originally, i differentiated and found the values of a and b when to make the derivative have a value of 0. and then i subbed into the initial function to find c. why did this not work?

    Isn't that assuming the root is at a SP?

    the x values cancelled, so there were no variable terms. So I just had a relation between a and b....

    NVM fml, I neglected the denominator fack!
