Hello everyone,
I have a task in which I would like to implement the graphical visualisation of a quadratic equation in the interval x =[-10,10] and - if any exist - the corresponding zeros, using CanvasRenderingContext2D methods.
To convert the coordinates into pixel coordinates within the canvas: the coordinates into pixel coordinates within the canvas I would use following functions:
var toCanvasX = function ( x ) {
return (x + (max-min ) / 2 ) * canvas.width /( max - min );
}
var toCanvasY = function ( y ) {
return canvas.height - (y + (max-min ) / 2 ) * canvas.height / ( max - min);
}
The graph should look like this:
How can I solve it?

var x1 = (-b - Math.sqrt(Math.pow(b, 2) - 4 * a * c)) / (2 * a);
var x2 = (-b + Math.sqrt(Math.pow(b, 2) - 4 * a * c)) / (2 * a);
output = "The polynomial <strong>" + (a == 1 ? "" : a) + "x\u00B2 + " + (b == 1 ? "" : b) + "x + " + c + " = 0</strong> has two zeros x1=" + x1 + "," + " " + "x2=" + x2;

This programme calculates zeros of quadratic polynomials of the form ax² + bx + c and graphically displays the solution in the interval x ∈ [-10,10].
