Introduction to Factoring
An epidemic of a disease has broken out. Where did it start? How is it spreading? What can be done to control it? Answers to these and other questions can be found by scientists known as epidemiologists. They collect data and analyze it to study disease and consider possible control measures. Because diseases can spread at alarming rates, these scientists must use their knowledge of mathematics involving factoring. In this chapter, you will learn how to factor and apply factoring to real-life situations.
ngoku Akukho calculator icwangcisa le nto, kodwa iinxalenye zayo zibalaseleyo. Zama enye ezantsi, okanye ubhale yakho.
I akhawunti ekhululekileyo idibanisa amaphetshana kwi ncwadi nganye, irekhodi lento ogqibe ngayo, iingxaki zakho ezisoliweyo kwindawo enye, nomfundi onokuthi ubuze malunga nale phepha. IiMathematiki ngokwazo zivuliwe kubo bonke, bangeniswe okanye hayi.

Imibuzo abantu bebuza
What does it mean to solve an equation?
To find every value of the unknown that makes both sides equal. Each step is an operation applied to both sides that keeps the solution set the same, until the unknown stands alone.
Why do I sometimes get two answers?
A quadratic can cross the axis twice, so it can have two solutions. A degree-n polynomial has up to n. The graph shows where each one comes from.
How do I know whether to factor or use the quadratic formula?
Try factoring for a few seconds: look for two numbers that multiply to a·c and add to b. If nothing obvious appears, the discriminant b² − 4ac tells you how many real roots there are, and the formula finds them without guessing.
