How would I factor this 8y^2 + 6y + 1

random231 (random231):

why not try that quadratic equation method i told you yesterday?

alones (alones):

I don't remember what you told me yesturday..there was so much random things happening to you..you said many things /;

OpenStudy (faiqraees):

For a general quadratic equation \[\large\rm ax^2+bx+c=0 \] you can find the factors by \[\large\rm (x-\frac{-b\pm\sqrt{b^2-4ac}}{2a}) \]

OpenStudy (faiqraees):

Now does that make any sense or you need a demonstration?

alones (alones):

I think you should demostrate..btw i have to factor trinomial /:

OpenStudy (faiqraees):

Okay well can you recognize the values of a and b and c?

alones (alones):

I think a and b are the factors http://prntscr.com/ad4tec

OpenStudy (faiqraees):

No okay dont jump to that if a quadratic equation is \[\large\rm ay^2+by+c \] and you are given equation \[\large\rm 8y^2+6y+1 \] So what are the values of a, b and c
