Factor out a negative one to solve a quadratic

The video tutorial explains how to solve quadratic equations by factoring out the greatest common factor (GCF). It demonstrates the process of factoring, including the option to factor out a negative one, and applies the zero product property to find solutions. The tutorial concludes by showing that the solutions remain unaffected by the initial choice of factors.
