help please to will medal

OpenStudy (anonymous):

one sec let me rightit out

OpenStudy (anonymous):

solve the equation using 2 of the following methods A: factoring B: using quadratic formula C: by completing square D: provide sketch graph

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Where is the equation?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

the equation is : 0=2x^2 + 8x - 24

OpenStudy (anonymous):

I think it is A because if you factor it will be; Simplifying 2x2 + 8x + -24 Reorder the terms: -24 + 8x + 2x2 Factor out the Greatest Common Factor (GCF), '2'. 2(-12 + 4x + x2) Factor a trinomial. 2((-6 + -1x)(2 + -1x)) Final result: 2(-6 + -1x)(2 + -1x)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

quadratic formula: x=2,6 factoring: x= -6,2 completing square: 2,-6

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Quadratic formula is \[x= \frac{ -b \pm \sqrt{b ^{2}-4ac} }{ 2a }\]when an equation is in the form \[y = ax ^{2} + bx + c\]Just plug in the values for a, b, and c into the quadratic formula and you got your answer for that one.

i need help home ..can you provide one way to solve it thank you very much btw people

OpenStudy (anonymous):

I just gave you the quadratic formula. That's by far the easiest way to solve it.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

please show steps people for i can understand it :) @MIS08

OpenStudy (anonymous):

ok thank you i cant medal everyone but thanks

OpenStudy (anonymous):

@kfullwood1 I did but I will do it again Simplifying 2x2 + 8x + -24 Reorder the terms: -24 + 8x + 2x2 Factor out the Greatest Common Factor (GCF), '2'. 2(-12 + 4x + x2) Factor a trinomial. 2((-6 + -1x)(2 + -1x)) Final result: 2(-6 + -1x)(2 + -1x)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

i mean like using quadratic formula by completing square

OpenStudy (anonymous):

any thing would be appreciated

OpenStudy (anonymous):

i think i figured the last one out well thats it thank you
