Factoring and FOIL

Sun, 12 Oct 2008 02:12:14 GMT

The definition is as follows: A "quadratic" is a polynomial that looks like "ax2 + bx + c", where "a", "b", and "c" are just numbers. For the easy case, you will find two numbers that multiply to the constant term "c", and add to "b", the coefficient on the x-term. Let's say we are going to factor x2+5x+6 The first step is to find factors of six that add up to five. There is 2 and 3 and then there is 1 and 6. Seeing as ...

For this one, I had trouble putting into words and, sometimes, you just need to step aside and let someone else do it. So, I found this really great website explaining what synthetic division is and examples. http://www.purplemath.com/modules/synthdiv.htm - Overall Summary of Synthetic Division http://www.purplemath.com/modules/synthdiv2.htm - Examples of Synthetic Division If you have any specific questions that aren't answered in one of those two links, please ask me. I really hope ...

Linear Equations

Okay, Mat wanted me to go over this so here I am. Before I continue, you must know what a linear equation is. The definition is as follows: A linear equation is a mathematical expression that has an equal sign and linear expressions. One of the most common equations is y=mx+b. m represents the slope or gradient of the line, while the b represents the y-intercept or where the line crosses the verticle or y axis. Examples of linear equations with two variables: x+2y=10 3a+472c=10c+37 2x+y-5=-7x+4y+3 Now, ...
