OpenStudy (issimplcalcus):

A line equation?

OpenStudy (triciaal):

no he is doing quadratics

OpenStudy (triciaal):

he just learned the standard form of the equation how to identify a, b and c

OpenStudy (triciaal):

one benefit of when you write in factored form is it is easy to see the intercepts

OpenStudy (keythemusician):

It would help identify the zero's if it was factored, correct?

OpenStudy (issimplcalcus):

yes

OpenStudy (triciaal):

when you set the factor = zero the x-value is the intercept (x,0)

OpenStudy (keythemusician):

Right! Thanks for your help @triciaal !

OpenStudy (triciaal):

OpenStudy (keythemusician):
