- How to Solve Compound Inequalities (AND and OR)Solve compound inequalities joined by AND or OR, graph the solution on a number line, and tell which combinations give no solution or every number.
- How to Solve Literal Equations and Rearrange FormulasRearrange a formula to solve for any variable using the same inverse operations you use on numbers, with worked examples from geometry, physics, and finance.
- Solving Quadratic Equations by FactoringSolve quadratics by factoring using the zero product property, why the equation must equal zero first, and how to factor the common trinomial patterns.
- How to Solve Absolute Value EquationsSolve absolute value equations by splitting into two cases, why two answers appear, when there is no solution, and how absolute value inequalities differ.
- Completing the Square, Step by StepLearn completing the square: why the method works geometrically, how to handle a leading coefficient, and how it produces vertex form and the quadratic formula.
- The Quadratic Formula: How and Why It WorksLearn the quadratic formula, where it comes from, and how to use it to solve any quadratic equation, with worked examples and practice problems.
