Quadratic equations are polynomials, meaning strings of math terms. An expression like “x + 4” is a polynomial. They can have ...

In a boon to algebra students everywhere, a professor at Carnegie Mellon University has devised a simpler and more efficient way to solve problems involving the quadratic equation.

Revise the methods of solving a quadratic equation including factorising and the quadratic formula. See a worked example of how to solve graphically.

Everyone learns (and some readers maybe still remember) the quadratic formula. It’s a pillar of algebra and allows you to solve equations like Ax2+Bx+C=0. But just because you’ve used i… ...
