Identify Coefficients: Step Title: Identify the CoefficientsShort Reasoning: The quadratic equation is in the form of ax2+bx+c. We need to identify the coefficients a, b, and c.Calculation: The coefficients are a=1 (coefficient of g2), b=−11 (coefficient of g), and c=18 (constant term).Math Error Check:
Find Factors: Step Title: Find the FactorsShort Reasoning: We need to find two numbers that multiply to give the product of a∗c (1∗18=18) and add up to b (−11).Calculation: The factors of 18 that add up to −11 are −2 and −9, because (−2)×(−9)=18 and (−2)+(−9)=−11.Math Error Check:
Write Factored Form: Step Title: Write the Factored FormShort Reasoning: Using the factors found in the previous step, we can write the quadratic equation in its factored form.Calculation: The factored form is (g−2)(g−9).Math Error Check:
