Introduction Solving Quadratic Equations

Solving Quadratic Equations

Using the above, you should now be able to solve quadratic equations. Theabove method is fool-proof at a basic level. But, if you can not find twonumbers which split up the middle value, then it is likely that it can not besolved using this method, but that you will have to use a more advanced method.Although we will not run through it in this particular guide, the equation usedis:

New Engineering Courses ... New Site

One of my Google Search Bots (RSS enabled - see my tutorials) turned up a new engineering education site, which in additional to the normal content (MIT OCW) has some other good material. I recommend a visit to the iBerry Academic Porthole. Here is a link to the courses which include video lectures. The site is run by a retired academic from the United Kingdom. Here are the three courses which were new to me: (added to my wiki and search engine) Note: These descriptions are quoted from iBerry

Polynomial Root-finding with the Jenkins-Traub Algorithm

The Jenkins-Traub Algorithm is a standard in the field of numerical computation of polynomial roots, fundamentally developed as a numerical algorithm specifically for the task of computing polynomial roots. In other words, (i) because it was planned from the outset for numerical purposes rather than being simply an adaptation of an analytic formula, it is extremely robust, effectively minimizing the effects of computer round-off error, while (ii) also being extremely efficient compared to more

Week of 5.12-5.16.2008

Schlitterbahn News: The last day to pay for Schlitterbahn was May 9. We will accept money on Monday May 12. We will not accept anything on Tuesday. Chaperones need to pay $25 to Ms. Diaz in the House B office ASAP. If additional family members are coming, the fee for them is $30. Students will choose their groups for the trip on Friday morning May 16 at 8:20 a.m. If they are not going to be present, they need to arrange with a friend to sign them up. 8:21 is too late.

sleep is good!

scarily, the class blog already has 90 posts! me having posted a proud 18 of those, that's 20% isn't it! muahahahha =) and this is my 261st post on my own blog, class blogposts has already come within one-third of my posts liao. oh and coincidentally, 261 is my PSLE raw score haha. ok random, my mind's not working realli well today. probably too tired... talked a lot of crappy stuff during GP, and a few didn't make sense -.- didn't even know what i was talking about and rebutting at some points
