I make most of my math lessons in a live classroom and do no editing. I believe this gives the viewer an authentic glimpse of american education and my personality. I have taught Algebra 1, 2, Geometry and Pre-Calculus at a high school level and love learning more about mathematics the more I teach. Teaching is my passion and helping as many students as I can is really a blessing that I never would have imagined when I entered this profession. Please feel free to share my resources with those in need or let me know if you need any additional help with your math studies. I am a true educator and here to help you out. http://www.freemathvideos.com In this video series I will show you how to solve by factoring out your GCF when you have a quadratic in the form of y = ax^2+bx. In these examples our value of C is zero so we will focus on what terms ax^2 and bx have in common. We will then factor them out(divide out) to create a product of it's factors. We do this because when solving a quadratic equation or function our output value is zero. So by having a product equal zero we can set each factor equal to zero by the zero product property. This allows us to solve for our x variable in two different cases and that will determine the x-intercepts, solutions, zeros or roots of the quadratic. solving, solve, quadratic, equation, function, x-intercepts, zero, zeros, root, roots, solution, solutions, factor, factors, factoring, zero product property, GCF, common core, CCSS
