Product Information

If a, b, and c are real numbers and a ≠ 0 then When b² − 4ac > 0, there are two distinct real roots or solutions to the equation ax² + bx + c = 0. When b² − 4ac < 0, there are two distinct complex solutions, which are complex conjugates of each other. You can also get a better visual and understanding of the function and area under the curve using our graphing tool.

There are other ways of solving a quadratic equation instead of using the quadratic formula, such as completing the square.

Since \frac{4\left(x+3\right)}{\left(x-5\right)\left(x+3\right)\left(x+5\right)} and \frac{\left(x+2\right)\left(x+5\right)}{\left(x-5\right)\left(x+3\right)\left(x+5\right)} have the same denominator, add them by adding their numerators. It can factor expressions with polynomials involving any number of vaiables as well as more complex functions.

Your own tutor—hints are also frequently provided to not just provide answers, but also to guide you towards finding the solution yourself. As well as being a formula that yields the zeros of any parabola, the quadratic formula can also be used to identify the axis of symmetry of the parabola, and the number of real zeros the quadratic equation contains. Least common multiple of \left(x-5\right)\left(x+5\right) and \left(x-5\right)\left(x+3\right) is \left(x-5\right)\left(x+3\right)\left(x+5\right).Not just answers—step-by-step solutions buttons expand answers and explain how that answer was found. The equation calculator allows you to take a simple or complex equation and solve by best method possible. Wolfram|Alpha Pro step-by-step solutions not only give you the answers you're looking for, but also help you learn how to solve problems. Given a general quadratic equation of the form whose discriminant b²-4ac is positive, with x representing an unknown, with a, b and c representing constants, and with a ≠ 0, the quadratic formula is: where the plus–minus symbol "±" indicates that the quadratic equation has two solutions. These optional additional explanations for individual pieces of step-by-step solutions help guide you.
