Do you know the equation of a parabola?
OpenStudy (anonymous):
No what is it parth?
OpenStudy (anonymous):
hmm..
Parth (parthkohli):
Oops
OpenStudy (anonymous):
WHY OOPS?

\(\Large \color{Black}{\Rightarrow y = a(x - h)^2 + b }\)
I did the equation wrong. Sorry.
OpenStudy (anonymous):
its ok but im confused on what knowing the equation has to do with it?
Parth (parthkohli):
This is the main idea.
OpenStudy (anonymous):
HMMM
OpenStudy (anonymous):
^im using hmm alot now cause you say it alot lol

BUT YEA, this is confusing..
Parth (parthkohli):
lol
Parth (parthkohli):
You just see what value can end in zero. Give me an equation. Hmm...
OpenStudy (anonymous):
lol hmm..
OpenStudy (anonymous):
y = (x - h)2 + k ?

Hmm....
Parth (parthkohli):
This is a standard equation. Give me an equation.
OpenStudy (anonymous):
@dpaInc can u give him an equation ahh! LOL
OpenStudy (anonymous):
yes... because this is a quadratic (degree 2) it has at most 2 zeros.
Parth (parthkohli):
Exactly lol I was about to lead him to that statement ;) you took it away

But listen, it may even have 1 zero if it's a perfect square.
OpenStudy (anonymous):
didn't mean to cut in like that... @sktjell you can take back that medal and give it to parth...
OpenStudy (anonymous):
parth..... *dpalnc
Parth (parthkohli):

parth is correct... it is an I..
OpenStudy (anonymous):
oh ok just wondering
OpenStudy (anonymous):
haha.. it still looks like an L.. it's an "i"
OpenStudy (anonymous):
do you guys get this question?
OpenStudy (anonymous):
the equation is that of y= x^2- 4.... i'm sure you can factor that.. here's a hint: x^2-4 = x^2 - 2^2

it asks for the factorization.
OpenStudy (anonymous):
ok so factor that equation?
OpenStudy (anonymous):
yes.
