Yes, solutions, roots, x-intercepts, and zeros are the same thing.

What is a quadratic equation?</h3>
The general quadratic equation is given by:
a*x^2 + b*x + c = 0
So the solutions are the values of x such that the above thing is zero.
On another hand, a parabola or a quadratic function is given by:
a*x^2 + b*x + c = y
The roots, zeros, or x-intercepts (these represent the same thing) are given by:
a*x^2 + b*x + c = 0
- Zero or Root means that when you evaluate the function in that value the outcome is zero.
- X-intercept means that for that value of x, the function intercepts the x-axis, so the function is equal to zero.
So these are the values of x such that the function becomes equal to zero, so these are exactly the same thing as the solutions of a quadratic equation.
Concluding, yes, solutions, roots, x-intercepts, and zeros are the same thing.
