Many quadratic equations can be solved by factoring when the equation has a leading coefficient of 1 or if the equation is a difference of squares. The zero-factor property is then used to find solutions. See
[link] ,
[link] , and
[link] .
Many quadratic equations with a leading coefficient other than 1 can be solved by factoring using the grouping method. See
[link] and
[link] .
Another method for solving quadratics is the square root property. The variable is squared. We isolate the squared term and take the square root of both sides of the equation. The solution will yield a positive and negative solution. See
[link] and
[link] .
Completing the square is a method of solving quadratic equations when the equation cannot be factored. See
[link].
A highly dependable method for solving quadratic equations is the quadratic formula, based on the coefficients and the constant term in the equation. See
[link] .
The discriminant is used to indicate the nature of the roots that the quadratic equation will yield: real or complex, rational or irrational, and how many of each. See
[link].
The Pythagorean Theorem, among the most famous theorems in history, is used to solve right-triangle problems and has applications in numerous fields. Solving for the length of one side of a right triangle requires solving a quadratic equation. See

How do we recognize when an equation is quadratic?
It is a second-degree equation (the highest variable exponent is 2).
When we solve a quadratic equation, how many solutions should we always start out seeking? Explain why when solving a quadratic equation in the form
we may graph the equation
and have no zeroes (
x -intercepts).
When we solve a quadratic equation by factoring, why do we move all terms to one side, having zero on the other side?
We want to take advantage of the zero property of multiplication in the fact that if
then it must follow that each factor separately offers a solution to the product being zero:
In the quadratic formula, what is the name of the expression under the radical sign
and how does it determine the number of and nature of our solutions?
is it possible to leave every good at the same level

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.

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

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.
