OpenStudy (mynameisnemo):

so you fill in the blank to make it equal?

OpenStudy (atomicreaper):

It just tells me to complete the equation.

OpenStudy (atomicreaper):

Well statement.

OpenStudy (mynameisnemo):

okay, so solve the left side

OpenStudy (mynameisnemo):

wait... Okay, sorry I just want to help you I''m trying to figure it out myself

OpenStudy (xmissalycatx):

okay so what you have to do is "factor out" the left side and add certain numbers to the right. I'll try to draw it out to show you.

OpenStudy (xmissalycatx):

Okay I believe you have to use quadratic formula for this one.

OpenStudy (atomicreaper):

No im in the "factoring algebraic equations" unit in my online class.

OpenStudy (atomicreaper):

I don't think we have to use the quadratic formula, but hey im not great at math either so yeah lol

OpenStudy (mynameisnemo):

*face palm* "I dont THINK we use it but idk"

OpenStudy (atomicreaper):

Like i said, I am terrible at this stuff. Don't judge

OpenStudy (xmissalycatx):

Okay so try to factor out the GCF, this is starting to come back to me.. the GCF can inclue variables.

OpenStudy (mynameisnemo):

I'm not its just the way you said it lol we're all friends here

OpenStudy (atomicreaper):

In factoring 18ax and 45 wouldn't it be 15 and 3?
