The next few problems will ask you to solve quadratic equations. Some such equations can be solved by factoring, but most require that you complete the square or apply the quadratic formula. As you know, I recommend that you complete the square, because most people cannot remember the quadratic formula correctly and permanently.
When asked to enter numbers in increasing sequence remember that a number is larger than a number if is to the left of on the number line. So, for example, is larger than . When the answers involve square roots, like , you can compute and enter decimal approximations, but it's easier to enter an expression like 1+sqrt(5). The equation has two solutions. Enter the smaller here and the larger here .
