In this discussion, you will solve quadratic equations by two main methods: factoring and using the Quadratic Formula. Read the following instructions in order and view the  to complete this discussion:

Complete problem attached    :   

• For the factoring problem, be sure you show all steps to the factoring and solving. Show a check of your solutions back into the original equation.
• For the Quadratic Formula problem, be sure that you use readable notation while you are working the computational steps. Refer to  for guidance with formatting.
• Present your final solutions as decimal approximations carried out to the third decimal place. Due to the nature of these solutions, no check is required.
• Incorporate the following four math vocabulary words into your discussion. Use bold font to emphasize the words in your writing (Do not write definitions for the words; use them appropriately in sentences describing your math work.):
  • Quadratic formula
  • Factoring
  • Completing the square
  • Discriminant

Your initial post should be at least 250 words in length.
