How do you solve for y in the equation:

="\frac{x}{y} =y-6" alt="\frac{x}{y} =y-6" align="absmiddle" class="latex-formula"> and is it a function?

No it isn't.

Explanation:

x/y * y = (y-6) * y

x = y^2 - 6y

A function gives just one y for every x

In this case there will always be 2 y's for every x

Example:

y can be

y = 6

or

y =−6

(0,-6) & (0,6)

Descried how to derive the quadratic formula from a quadratic equation in standard form

Aleks [24]

Answer:

The standard form of a quadratic equation is:

$ax^2+bx+c=0$ , $a\neq 0$

Quadratic Formula Derivation:

$ax^2+bx+c=0\\$

$x^2+\frac{b}{a}x+\frac{c}{a} =0$

$x^2+\frac{b}{a}x = -\frac{c}{a}$

Completing the Square:

$x^2+\frac{b}{a}x +\frac{b^2}{4a^2} = \frac{b^2}{4a^2}-\frac{c}{a}$

$( x+\frac{b}{2a} )^2 = \frac{b^2-4ac}{4a^2}$

Square Root property:

$x+\frac{b}{2a} = \pm \sqrt{ \frac{b^2-4ac}{4a^2}}$

$x = -\frac{b}{2a} \pm { \frac{\sqrt {b^2-4ac}}{2a}}$

$x = \frac{-b\pm\sqrt{b^2-4ac}} {2a} }$
