Jeremana73:
in your own words, define the standard form of a quadratic expression
I really just don't understand the concept

@jeremana73
velmalovesshaggy145:
I got an answer
Jeremana73:
Shoot
velmalovesshaggy145:
But, would you mind if I help lead you to it, which is what I prefer my guy. But if it's like urgent(swear to God), I'll give it to you dude
velmalovesshaggy145:
Is that cool?

Jeremana73:
yeah, I want to know how to do it
velmalovesshaggy145:
Alright
velmalovesshaggy145:
So what do you currently know about quadratics all together
Jeremana73:
Well I understand most of the concept, my main problem is I just don't know why the different forms are different
velmalovesshaggy145:
Ok so there are three standard forms of quad expressions

Factored
velmalovesshaggy145:
wait let me rephrase
velmalovesshaggy145:
What is standard form of quad expression
velmalovesshaggy145:
try to answer that
velmalovesshaggy145:
it starts with ax^2, where a is the coefficient of x^2

Jeremana73:
ax^2 + bx + c = 0
I dont know what any of those numbers do though
velmalovesshaggy145:
Ok let me explain
velmalovesshaggy145:
Sorry juggling this question and chat
velmalovesshaggy145:
Ok back
velmalovesshaggy145:
Dont leave

dw I wont
velmalovesshaggy145:
The standard form of a quadratic expression is ax^2 +bx+c=0
velmalovesshaggy145:
A is the leading coefficient, which is only 1 number
velmalovesshaggy145:
It can be any number
velmalovesshaggy145:
1,2,3 etc.

Jeremana73:
ok
velmalovesshaggy145:
B in bx is the coefficient of x
Jeremana73:
Yeah I get that, but what does all this do?
Like how does multiplying all these numbers make a parabola?
velmalovesshaggy145:
Getting to that
velmalovesshaggy145:
I have to explain what the standard form of the expression

So b
velmalovesshaggy145:
It will affect the parabola
