Solve the equation. Express numbers as integers or simplified fractions. Separate multiple answers with a comma, if necessary. 3w^2-2w=8

Question

anonymous · Answer

Okay, start off with setting the equation to zero; standard form. 

What do we have to do to get zero on the right side?

anonymous · Answer

we make the equal sign before the 8 a minus sign?

anonymous · Answer

Kind of, we're subtracting 8 from both sides.|dw:1394322927779:dw|

anonymous · Answer

Next, you factor it out.

anonymous · Answer

With this one I need a solution set.

anonymous · Answer

When you factor it out, you would then set those equal to zero to find your answer.

anonymous · Answer

Try using the distributive law ab+ac, so a(b+c). 

In this case you have 3w^2-2w=8
w(3w-2)=8

So try to solve it now.

anonymous · Answer

You have now two equations.

anonymous · Answer

Okay.
