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 ...

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 ...

Look at the National 4 factorising section before continuing. When a question asks you to 'solve' a quadratic equation, this means that you are to find the roots of the quadratic. In other words, ...

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 ...

Do you know what ‘ax2+bx+c=0’ is? Well, it’s the quadratic equation, which, believe it or not, is used in multiple fields in daily life. Celebrating and explaining the same, Google Doodle has featured ...

A group of students from a Winnipeg high school are doing the math on pedestrian safety. Laurel Sherbo's Grade 11 applied mathematics class is working on a project to help their schoolmates cross the ...
