Question

this is all like another language hahaha...solve the quadratic equation by completing the square?? 3x^2-18x+24=0???

Answer 1

make your life easier by factoring out a 3 and then writing
\[3 (x-4) (x-2) = 0\]

Answer 2

okay well i got the factor by 3 but dont you have to include and the 3x^2 somehow thats how i kept screwing up?

Answer 3

you want to solve this equation, so if you can factor it is easier than using the formula.

Answer 4

now you know
\[x-4=0\] so \[x=4\] or
\[x-2=0\] so \[x=2\]

Answer 5

ohhh gotcha!!
