hmm    have you covered quadratics yet?

anonymous · Answer

no not yet and im not sure :/

jdoe0001 · Answer

you may want to cover that first, since that's what the exercise is

fibonaccichick666 · Answer

naw, just figuring out what your domain can be? I wouldn't treat it as a quadratic.

So you cannot tell me what the variable is?
