Let's start small here:
If we have a
2nd
degree polynomial (that's a quadratic, baby!), what are all the possible
combinations of types of zeros that can happen?
--
2
real zeros:

*This includes the
kissing kind like

the real zeros are
0
AND 0!
0
has a multiplicity of two!
--
2 complex zeros:

--
1
complex and
1 real?
No way! The complex guy
needs his conjugate buddy.
