Answer

False

Work Step by Step

A quadratic equation can be represented as $px^2+qx+r=0$; where $p,q,r$ are real numbers and $p$ cannot be equal to zero, that is , $p \neq 0$ and the roots /solutions of a quadratic equation corresponds to have two same solutions/roots and these are solved by factorization then we can have two same roots/solutions. Hence, the given statement is false.
