This jingle has helped generations of algebra students recall the quadratic formula that solves every equation of the form $latex ax^2+bx+c=0$. The formula is as ...

Looking for the answers to ax² + bx + c = 0? A mathematician has rediscovered a technique that the ancient Babylonians used. By Kenneth Chang and Jonathan Corum The quadratic equation has frustrated ...

An equation of the form \(y = mx + c\) where \(m\) and \(c\) are numbers, gives a straight line when values of \(x\) and corresponding values of \(y\) are plotted on a grid. A straight line is a ...

Here’s what you’ll learn when you read this story: A mathematician at Carnegie Mellon University has developed an easier way to solve quadratic equations. The mathematician hopes this method will help ...

It was December 16 of last year. A new method was presented in a paper that could free us from the 'quadratic formula,' which has vexed humanity for over 4,000 years. Professor Po-Shen Loh of Carnegie ...
