    To find the number of roots of a quadratic equation, use the discriminant. The discriminant is calculated by taking the square of the coefficient of the x term and subtracting 4 times the product of the coefficients of the x squared and constant terms. If the discriminant is positive, there are two real roots. If the discriminant is zero, there is one real root. If the discriminant is negative, there are no real roots.
