@vtm386 Lessons.....

Answer 1

ok im here

Answer 2

OK
lets start from factoring

Answer 3

ok could you factor the problem \[3x^2 + 4x = 2\]

Answer 4

I think no!

Answer 5

For sure not, because 2 would be 2 times 1

and 2 &1 never add up to 4.

See?

Answer 6

ok so how would you do that problem?

Answer 7

would you use the completing the square?

Answer 8

At first,, in any case, I would subtract 2 from both sides.

Answer 9

\[3x^2+4x=2\]
\[3x^2+4x-2=2-2\]
\[3x^2+4x-2=0\]

this is the form, to even start choosing the method. Set it equal to zero. Right, @vtm386?

Answer 10

Yup!

Answer 11

Now, lets see, have you ever factored anything before?
