[naruto82941]

[asitahrox]

helps a lot

[KittyForTheWin]

For the second one, couldn't you have just done (x+1)(x-6)=0 ?

[freaknasty718]

can i use the formula to solve for b?

[mercphan1]

for an easier way to factor look up factoring by the box method

[MissSmartCookie1]

my teacher gave me the formula x=-b over 2a so it looks like x=-b/2a and just plug in the numbers. but it just confuses me

[patrickJMT]

@MissSmartCookie1 well, that only finds the x - coordinate of the vertex. it does not find the solutions / zeros / roots for the function

[RHSlovinFB34]

i wish i had your handwriting.

[DarklightALBANIA]

I don't really understand how you can do the second example by grouping ?

[eazybreezyxoxo]

@DarklightALBANIA me either

[mohamedgtv]

the first equation is wrong it should be [x=-2] or [x=-7]

[patrickJMT]

@mohamedgtv what i have is 100% correct

[ichoosetostand]

@mohamedgtv thats why you're studying math and he's teaching it
