Of negative four x minus four, but this still doesn't help you. And you could get something like this, you would get x is equal to plus or minus the square root The plus of minus of one side to make sure you're Square root of x squared is equal to, and you could try to take And now, someone might say, if I take the square root of both sides, I could get, I'll just write that down. And then what happens? On the left hand side, you do indeed isolate the x squared, and on the right hand side, you get negative four x minus four. Isolate that x squared by subtracting four x from both sides and subtracting three from both sides. So you could imagine, let me just rewrite it. People will try to go for is to isolate the x squared first. So just willy nilly, taking the square root ofīoth sides of a quadratic is not going to be too helpful. Isolate the x over here? You've pretty quickly hit a dead end. But even if this wasĪ positive value here, how do you simplify or how do you somehow Even if this wasn't a negative one here, that's the most obvious problem. Plus four x plus three is equal to the square The square root of both sides? And if you did that, you would get the square root of x squared So one strategy that people might try is, well, I have something squared, why don't I just try to take I have something on both sides of an equal sign. Why is it a quadratic equation? Well, it's a quadratic because it has this secondĭegree term right over here and it's an equation because In this video, we're gonna talk aboutĪ few of the pitfalls that someone might encounter while they're trying to solve a quadratic equation like this.
