    99% sure that the abc is a formatting error, since the format is just ax^2 + bx + c, so in this instance a=9, b=18 and c=24, and then they just forgot to remove the abc. But even then, I'm not sure if it's a binomial. When I take out the common factor 3x so you have 3x(3ax^2 + 6bx + 8c), I can't turn it into a binomial (even wolfram alpha can't). What you do get is 3x(3x(x+2)+8).

    For it to be a binomial, it'd need to be
    3x^3 + 18x^2 + 24x
    3x(x^2+6x+8)
    3x(x+4)(x+2)

    The video does an ok job at explaining a basic version of the problem, but will lead to confusion when a≠1. To go with the example in the video, x^2+7x+10, you aren't just grabbing the factors of 10, 2 and 5, and then adding them to make sure they add to 7. You're actually going 1*5+1*2.

    This is how I work out the brackets

    I'm assuming people are still up for homework help

    I have a little stats questions.
    So I'm trying to figure out if these two numbers are connected.
    What I'm thinking is that the value above the Rsquared value is what the R2 is being connected/compared to. I know the Rsquared value is how well a point fit on a line.
    I've never done stats before, if you're wondering.

    I can assist with cooking class. I'm a boss in cooking class. If you really want I can help you with math by referring to cooking. Other than that I'm pretty useless in school
