Some PowerPoint stuff, a "live" (recorded) video of how I might build the quadratic formula, for a Word document, and anything else I come up with later to help you get your equations to the rest of the class and me.
Factoring Skills - And other skills relating to polynomials that you want to know in order to succeed in this course.
