  • This method consumes too much time for guessing and checking the terms of the 2 binomials in x, due to high number of permutations. There is a new method, called Diagonal Sum Method, that directly gives the 2 roots WITHOUT factoring. It reduces the number of permutations in half, and is applicable whenever the equation can be factored. See book title:" New Methods for solving quadratic equations and inequalities" (Trafford 2009).

  • You are right, there are many ways to factor, and just recently there has been an explosion of the "X" method. The most important thing is, can you learn and demonstrate the concept? If you can do it with any method, you are one step ahead of everyone.

  • Very inefficient method. strategic guess and check and decomposition methods are significantly better, and fast!

  • I agree, but there will always be a student who will want to guess! My teacher used to guess!

  • How would u complete this problem without guessing?

  • Check with my other videos. I do it without guessing.

  • what video is that,,,,i cant find it

  • You rock, Thank you so much!!! I have end of the year exams tomarrow and my teacher sucks at teaching this. he knows the material, but can't teach it well so Thank you!!! I finally Get it!!

  • Just want to say thx. Ive looked at a lot of your videos and they have really helped. I just wish my math teacher taught it that well.

  • damn i havent found a video with the last term having a square

  • Give me an example.

  • how did u get the -4

  • At the beginning, the -4 was found because I factored a negative one first.

  • this is bs i still dont understand

  • Why do it by guessing? Do it by more formal means, like grouping or completing the square. Look at my other videos.

  • just (a)(c)=-30 and find the factor of it who's sum is -7 which is -10 and 3!then factor 2x(squared)-10x+3x-15 by grouping!!!

  • once again, thank you so much for your help and for taking the time to post these videos up. god bless you.

  • Hi sir,I woud like to thank you for your helpfull may God bless you.

  • ok i just want to say, as a grade 10 student i never understood any of this, but this step by step process is so helpful!! thanks so so much man!

  • this is easy stuff i wanna learn the hard stuff which is so hard

  • hello sir/mam, i would like to thank you for being helpfull i know that you shuold be payed for this but it only show that you care,i praised you for this and recommend to keep it up you just dont this really helpfull for those who having hard time to understand the lesson oneway ot he other your fruit of labor will come for sure..and i'm one of them thanks again and pls dont get tired of this god bless

    Aj

  • It´s a lot easier to teach the grouping or triple play method....none of this guessing....This is the way they taught us in school as well...take -5 and multiply it by 4....then split the 2nd term up and then factor...a lot easier:) Alex
