What is the quadratic formula used to find the solutions of a quadratic equation?

Back

The quadratic formula is given by x = (-b ± √(b² - 4ac)) / (2a), where a, b, and c are coefficients in the quadratic equation ax² + bx + c = 0.

How do you multiply two complex numbers in the form (a + bi)(c + di)?

Back

To multiply two complex numbers, use the distributive property: (a + bi)(c + di) = ac + adi + bci + bdi². Remember that i² = -1.

What is the formula for compound interest?

Back

The formula for compound interest is A = P(1 + r/n)^(nt), where A is the amount of money accumulated after n years, P is the principal amount, r is the annual interest rate, n is the number of times that interest is compounded per year, and t is the number of years.

How do you express a percentage increase in a population over time?

Back

To express a percentage increase in a population, use the formula P(t) = P0(1 + r)^t, where P0 is the initial population, r is the growth rate (as a decimal), and t is the time in years.

What is the significance of the discriminant in a quadratic equation?

Back

The discriminant, given by b² - 4ac, determines the nature of the roots of a quadratic equation: if it's positive, there are two distinct real roots; if it's zero, there is one real root; if it's negative, there are two complex roots.

How do you convert an annual interest rate to a monthly rate for compounding?

Back

To convert an annual interest rate to a monthly rate, divide the annual rate by 12. For example, an annual rate of 7.5% becomes 7.5% / 12 = 0.625% per month.

How do you find the roots of a quadratic equation using factoring?

Back

To find the roots of a quadratic equation by factoring, express the equation in the form ax² + bx + c = 0, factor it into (px + q)(rx + s) = 0, and then set each factor to zero to solve for x.

How do you calculate the future value of an investment with compound interest?

Back

To calculate the future value of an investment with compound interest, use the formula A = P(1 + r/n)^(nt), where A is the future value, P is the principal, r is the annual interest rate, n is the number of compounding periods per year, and t is the number of years.
