2.3 Quadratic Equations

Alright everybody, so when working those quadratic equations there are several big things to remember.
Number 1: The Game
Second, is the Zero Factor Theorum.
This states that if p and q are algebraic expressions, then p=q if and only if p=0 or q=0.
Another important thing to know when solving them quadratic equations is completing the square.
This means that when:

We add to both sides to give us... the perfect square.
The example given to us by Mr. Wilhelm himself was:






Also, when solving quadratic equations, always keep in mind that if that means that . The key here is that it can be negative or positive.
Now last but not least is the Quadratic Formula.
If a is not zero, then...
x=(-b±√(b^2-4ac))/2a
This will give us two solutions of the equation. Be sure to check these people.
Now for your enjoyment...




Well you all just licked my blog, and you licked it hard.
Watch your backpacks, especially you Tyler.
