The quadratic formula cannot be used to solve an equation if the coefficient of the equation's x2-term is?

The quadratic formula cannot be used to solve an equation if the coefficient of the equation's x2-term is 0.


When do you use the Quadratic Formula in math?

you use the quadratic formula in math when the quadratic equation you are solving cannot be factored.


What does quadratic formula find?

When an equation cannot be solved for "x" to find the zeroes, the quadratic formula can be used instead for the same purpose.


Is it OK to use the quadratic formula if the given quadratic trinomial is not factorable?

Well, if the given quadratic equation cannot be factored, nor completed by the square, try using the quadratic formula.


The quadratic formula cannot be used to solve an equation if a term in the equation has a degree higher than?

Two.

Does the equation a2 plus b2 equals c2 classify as a quadratic equation?

A quadratic equation is univariate: it has only one variable. A quadratic equation cannot have two variables. So, if b and c are known then it is a quadratic equation in a; if a and b are known it is a quadratic in c.Another Answer:-The question given is Pythagoras' theorem formula for a right angle triangle


What is the quadratic equation used for?

It is used to solve quadratic equations that cannot be factored. Usually you would factor a quadratic equation, identify the critical values and solve, but when you cannot factor you utilize the quadratic equation.


When do you use the quadratic formula?

When you need to find the roots of a quadratic equation and factorisation does not work (or you cannot find the factors). The quadratic equation ALWAYS works. And when appropriate, it will give the imaginary roots which, judging by this question, you may not yet be ready for.


Explain the conditions under which a quadratic equation can be solved using simple rearrangement versus using the quadratic formula?

The quadratic formula always works (as long as one considers complex numbers). "Simple rearrangement" may be quicker when the numbers look simple enough for you to decide (or rather guess) what the factors/ roots are by inspection (but the "rearrangement" method still works -- the numbers may just be more complicated). Probably the easiest quadratic is when the coefficient of x is zero (i.e. a polynomial of the form ax^2+b=0) or when there is no constant term (i.e. ax^2+bx=0) The quadratic formula cannot be used to solve an equation if a term in the equation has a degree higher than 2 (or if it can't be put in the form ax^2+bx+c=0). There are other more complex formulas for polynomials for degree 3 and 4.


Quadratic Formula for solving 5x100?

Unfortunately, the browser used by Answers.com for posting questions is incapable of accepting mathematical symbols. This means that we cannot see the mathematically critical parts of the question. We are, therefore unable to determine what exactly the question is about and so cannot give a proper answer to your question. However, even allowing for that, it does not look like you have a quadratic equation and so you would not use the quadratic formula to solve it!


Is this equation a quadriatic equation 3x³ plus 2x equals -3?

no only equations with x2 and lower powers can be considered quadratic. those with x3 cannot be considered quadratic, just as x2 cannot be considered linear
