Solving Quadratic Equations: The Zero-Factor Property Pt. 1 [fbt] (The Zero-Product Property)

This video by Fort Bend Tutoring shows the process of solving quadratic equations using the zero-factor property (zero product property). Eight problems are solved using the zero factor property (zero-product property) in this video tutorial. This math concept, solving quadratic equations by factoring, can be used in all algebra, geometry, trigonometry, precalculus and calculus classes. Intro/Outro by Chuck Knipp's Shirley Q. Liquor. Larry "Mr. Whitt" Whittington shows how to solve quadratic equations by using the zero product property. fort bend tutoring quadratic equations

 After not being in school for 22 yrs, I have forgotten almost everything I learned. I decided to follow my dream and return to school.  With your help my dream is coming true!!!! Thank you soooo  much!!! You are a life saver

For the record, the state of your braces is completely overshadowed by how amazing you are at teaching the MATH.  I cannot believe how easy you just made this whole thing.  My textbook teaches like my dad tried to teach me when I was in school many, many years ago.  He just looked at the equation and knew the answer.  Show the work?  What work?  I am one of the unlucky people not born with a brain that unravels all these letters and numbers without a little hand-holding.  So, thanks for holding my hand here.  :)

LOVE IS NOT A STRONG ENOUGH WORD FOR HOW I FEEL ABOUT YOUR VIDEOS, THANK YOU MUCH, IVE BEEN SUBSCRIBED FOR A WHILE AND EVEN TOLD MY COLLEGE INTERMEDIATE MATH TEACHER ABOUT YOUR AWESOMENESS, SHE BEING EQUALLY AWESOME QUICKLY WROTE DOWN YOUR YOUTUBE CHANNEL TO PASS ON TO OTHER STUDENTS.

[erikataylor]

wish you were my teacher! you make this so easy! thank you for the awesome video!

[vivianhale]

After all these years, I come back and enjoy doing these equations for fun!….thank you, Mr.Whitt!❤

[Whitewash]

Your glorious voice just saved my math class.  

[Lilmansamsmom]

You have a gift for teaching. I love your attitude 😊. Thank you .

[Mr.G]

by far the best tutor with math on youtube..thank you sir

[soingal]

Love this video! You, my friend, are at the top of your game! I can't wait to watch your other videos. I am a struggling Algebra I student who has been in the classroom setting 4 times. Never having taken algebra in high school, I never had a foundation to build upon. I plan to write all of the examples down to use as a study aid. KEEP UP THE GOOD WORK!!

[kesepea]

you're the reason why Math is my favorite subject ❤
you've been a great help since my elementary days 😁

[nathanhamel]

WOW thank you so much man! Im a freshman in college and today in class we were doing this and everything went right over my head so she said go read the book, and that didn't help. but everything you shared made it very clear!!! thank you so much man!

[trinast.pierre]

I am so grateful for this site! it is the best I have a lot of trouble with math after being away for so many years.

[Miranda_Writes]

Because of you, I'll be able to pass my class this semester. Thank you.

[lukeestrada]

Huge help man got an A on my test because of you Thanks!!

You know I gotta say since watching these video's I've been much more confident with math, which is a very big thing for me Considering I've always considered myself math illiterate ever since the 4th grade when they introduced us to that chicago math. Needless to say the teacher didn't quite explain it well enough and my 'rents couldn't help me and so confidence in more complexe numbers other than basic multiplication division and addition and subtraction. plummeted. But now I'm going back to school for my diploma and dealing with these numbers and I'm getting confidence back in my ability to solve the problems 

[emblem]

thank you so much for making this video, I love how you didn’t explain it and expected us to everything else besides this. It made my life a whole lot easier

[XcrazymanX]

You are the man! Also most skillful bracket drawer I've ever seen.

[Nlrsuperstar]
