Given a quadratic equation with the leading coefficient of 1, factor it.
Find two numbers whose product equals
c and whose sum equals
b .
Use those numbers to write two factors of the form
where
k is one of the numbers found in step 1. Use the numbers exactly as they are. In other words, if the two numbers are 1 and
the factors are
Solve using the zero-product property by setting each factor equal to zero and solving for the variable.
Solving a quadratic equation by factoring when the leading coefficient is not 1
Factor and solve the equation:
To factor
we look for two numbers whose product equals
and whose sum equals 1. Begin by looking at the possible factors of
The last pair,
sums to 1, so these are the numbers. Note that only one pair of numbers will work. Then, write the factors.
To solve this equation, we use the zero-product property. Set each factor equal to zero and solve.
The two solutions are
and
We can see how the solutions relate to the graph in
[link] . The solutions are the
x- intercepts of
Using the zero-product property to solve a quadratic equation written as the difference of squares
Solve the difference of squares equation using the zero-product property:
Recognizing that the equation represents the difference of squares, we can write the two factors by taking the square root of each term, using a minus sign as the operator in one factor and a plus sign as the operator in the other. Solve using the zero-factor property.
Solving a quadratic equation by factoring when the leading coefficient is not 1
When the leading coefficient is not 1, we factor a quadratic equation using the method called grouping, which requires four terms. With the equation in standard form, let’s review the grouping procedures:
With the quadratic in standard form,
multiply
Find two numbers whose product equals
and whose sum equals
Rewrite the equation replacing the
term with two terms using the numbers found in step 1 as coefficients of
x.
Factor the first two terms and then factor the last two terms. The expressions in parentheses must be exactly the same to use grouping.
Factor out the expression in parentheses.
Set the expressions equal to zero and solve for the variable.
is it possible to leave every good at the same level
Joseph
I don't think so. because check it, if the demand for chicken increases, people will no longer consume fish like they used to causing a fall in the demand for fish

is not really possible to let the value of a goods to be same at the same time.....

Suppose the inflation rate is 6%, does it mean that all the goods you purchase will cost
6% more than previous year? Provide with reasoning.
Not necessarily. To measure the inflation rate economists normally use an averaged price index of a basket of certain goods. So if you purchase goods included in the basket, you will notice that you pay 6% more, otherwise not necessarily.
Good day
How do I calculate this question: C= 100+5yd G= 2000 T= 2000 I(planned)=200.
Suppose the actual output is 3000. What is the level of planned expenditures at this level of output?

money as unit of account means what?
Kalombe
A unit of account is something that can be used to value goods and services and make calculations

all of you please speak in English I can't understand you're language

I want to know how can we define macroeconomics in one line
Muhammad
it must be .9 or 0.9
no Mpc is greater than 1
Y=100+.9Y+50
Y-.9Y=150
0.1Y/0.1=150/0.1
Y=1500

hi can someone help me on this question
If a negative shocks shifts the IS curve to the left, what type of policy do you suggest so as to stabilize the level of output?
discuss your answer using appropriate graph.
