I think this might be what you're looking for

I'm not too sure what it meant by combining but my first thought is overloading the method

essentially based on different input, it does different stuff. For example, if you only input x, then it will evaluate 3x^2 + 2x - 4 and if ypu input a b c it evaluates the quadratic

though aren't they pretty much almost similar?
that's the point, you have duplicate code between those 2

solveX is just solveFunction with a predetermined a, b, c

so you can use solveFunction for solveX
solveX just acts as a wrapper to define the a, b, c
