Uncle Ren, The quadratic formula is used to solve quadratic equations that are set to 0. For example if you had x^2-x-6=0 you could use the quadratic formula to get x=3 and x=-2. This video is about factoring x^2-x-6 which would factor to (x-3)(x+2). For more detailed information you can check out my notes that cover "Solving Quadratic Equations by Factoring" and "The Quadratic Formula". These notes are available on my website.
@EncryptedHuman I'm glad to hear that! Best of luck to you!

Why is it when I used the quadratic formula to solve this equation, my answer was x=14.08 or x= 13.84
