Description
This course will show you how to factor and solve any quadratic equation the super easy (and fast) way. Included in my lessons are many helpful shortcuts and useful methods that make solving any quadratic equation simple and painless.
The lessons are divided into seven parts plus a section with practice problems and solutions
1. How to factor quadratic trinomials with only positive factors
2. How to factor quadratic trinomials with negative factors
3. How to factor quadratic trinomials when a > 1
4. How to factor difference of perfect squares
5. How to solve quadratic equations by factoring
6. How to solve quadratic equations using the quadratic formula
7. How to check solutions to quadratic equations
8. Practice problems and solutions
Each lesson will include a video tutorial as well as guided examples so you can practice what you've learned at your own convenience.
The course is specifically designed for those of us who have had trouble with Algebra in the past or need a crash course in factoring and solving quadratic equations. The instructor understands the pain math can cause (she had a serious phobia of math growing up but overcame her fear to become a math teacher later in life) and has come up with many ways to break down complex topics into, easy to understand, bite sized pieces anyone can digest.
If you've ever thought to yourself "I'm not a math person" then this course is for you. By taking this course, you will be able to prove to yourself that you too, can be a math person and that you're more capable than you thought you were.
