Ac method
for
ax^2+bx+c
multiply a and c together
find what 2 numbers multiply to get ac and add to get b
split b up
gropu
factor
3x^2+7x+2
2 times 3=6
what 2 numbers multily to get 6 and ad to get 7
6 and 1
3x^2+6x+1x+2
(3x^2+6x)+(1x+2)
3x(x+2)+1(x+2)
(3x+1)(x+2) is factored
Answer: Yes
Step-by-step explanation:
To solve this, imagine you have a vertical line. You can use a ruler or something straight. Move the ruler across the screen. Does the ruler intersect 2 points at once? If so, then it is not a function. If it only intersects one point, then it is a function.
Always remember: a function cannot have two x's with different y-values.
Hope that helped!
