:)

2. Nnesha

get rd of the denominator and then factor the quadratic equation

3. amistre64

when is a fraction equal to zero?

4. heyitslizzy13

when it is equal to zero

5. StudyGurl14

Solve the quadratic in the numerator, and make sure to exclude the value that makes the denominator equal 0

6. heyitslizzy13

when x=0 I mean

7. heyitslizzy13

can someone walk me through it?

8. amistre64

when the number on top (the numerator) is zero

9. heyitslizzy13

ohh yeah okay

10. heyitslizzy13

when x = -7 and -2

11. Nnesha

eh ?

12. heyitslizzy13

huh?

there are many ways to play with a quadratic equation, which methods have you covered?

15. dinamix

x=2 and x=7 and must be x=/0

16. heyitslizzy13

we have not really learned anything, thanks!

i believe one generally starts with factoring into groups; then moves to completing the square, then covers the quadratic formula. might be a graphing section as well but at least one of these has to be covered before asking you to solve a quadratic equation.

18. heyitslizzy13

so is x=7 & x=2, I did factoring
