Then we plug these coefficients in the formula. See examples of using the formula to solve a variety of equations. Find two numbers with a product of 12 and a sum of 7.
Find two numbers with a product of 12 and a sum of 7.
Now the quadratic formula it applies to any quadratic equation of the form-- we could put the 0 on the left hand side. In order use the quadratic formula the quadratic equation that we are solving must be converted into the standard form otherwise all subsequent steps will not work. The quadratic formula calculates the solutions of any quadratic equation. Use these equations to solve for k and m or for x.
