what does it mean to solve an equation? What does it mean to keep an equation balanced? Why do you have to keep an equation balanced? What part of the parabola are the solutions to a quadratic? How come? What is a factor? Solve each equation. Then check that the solutions are correct using Desmos. 1. 2. (x + 2)2 = 3 (-2r-3)(x - 5)=0 In Desmos, put (- 2x - 3)(x - 5) = y In Desmos, put y = (x + 2) - 3
