The quadratic formula for a quadratic equation in the form of \(ax^2 + bx + c = 0\) is: \(x = \frac{-b \pm \sqrt{b^2 - 4ac}}{2a}\). The first solution is \(\frac{(-6 ...

For tips on how to do this, look at Factorising quadratics and Factorisation of further quadratics in this guide. For (\({x}\) + 2)(\({x}\) + 7) to equal 0 either the first or second bracket must be ...

In a boon to algebra students everywhere, a professor at Carnegie Mellon University has devised a simpler and more efficient way to solve problems involving the quadratic equation. The new method was ...

Let Q be an n x n symmetric matrix with integral entries and with det Q ≠ O, but not necesarily positive definite. We describe a generalized LLL algorithm to reduce this quadratic form. This algorithm ...

Google is celebrating the quadratic equation with a special Doodle today, November 12. The Doodle highlights one of mathematics’ most recognised and widely applied formulas, bringing an everyday ...
