Question

What is the quadralatic formula

Answer 1

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The quadratic formula is as follows:

$\frac{-b+/-\sqrt{b^2-4ac} }{2a}$

It is used for factoring second degree polynomials ONLY!!!  That's why it's called the quadratic formula...quadratics are second degree polynomials.  The a, b and c are found in the standard form of a quadratic equation:

$y=ax^2+bx+c$

Just plug them into the formula, but be careful with the "-4ac".  Sometimes that mistakenly leads to an unwanted negative sign under you radical.  Unless you are dealing with imaginary numbers, your solutions should be real.

Answer 2

X equals negative B and plus and minus the square root of b squared minus 4ac all over 2a
