Solve by factoring when a is greater than one

The video tutorial demonstrates how to solve a quadratic equation using the AC method. It begins by explaining the importance of the absolute value of 'A' and why traditional factoring techniques may not apply. The instructor sets up the problem by rewriting the equation and then applies the AC method to find factors that multiply to a specific value and add to another. The tutorial continues with factoring by grouping, where common terms are identified and factored out. Finally, the zero product property is applied to solve the equation, resulting in the solutions for X. The tutorial concludes with a summary of the process and the solutions obtained.
