To factor quadratic equations of the form ax^2+bx+c=y, you must find two values, j and k, which satisfy two conditions.
jk=ac and j+k=b
The you replace the single linear term bx with jx and kx. Finally then you factor the first pair of terms and the second pair of terms. In this problem...
2k^2-5k-18=0
2k^2+4k-9k-18=0
2k(k+2)-9(k+2)=0
(2k-9)(k+2)=0
so k=-2 and 9/2
k=(-2, 4.5)
A)Add 3 and the continue to add 2 more to three each time to get the next number

Step-by-step explanation:
<u>Step 1: Define Equation</u>
x - 3 = q
<u>Step 2: Solve for </u><em><u>x</u></em>
- Add 3 to both sides: x = q + 3
