The quadratic formula can be used to solve an equation only if the highest degree in the equation is 2.
The quadratic formula can be used to solve an equation only if the equation contains no term whose degree is higher than?

What statement must be true of an equation before you can use the quadratic formula to find the solutions?
The quadratic formula can be used to find the solutions of a quadratic equation - not a linear or cubic, or non-polynomial equation. The quadratic formula will always provide the solutions to a quadratic equation - whether the solutions are rational, real or complex numbers.
What is the difference between a linear quadratic and a quadratic quadratic?
There is no quadratic equation that is 'linear'. There are linear equations and quadratic equations. Linear equations are equations in which the degree of the variable is 1, and quadratic equations are those equations in which the degree of the variable is 2.
Explain the conditions under which a quadratic equation can be solved using simple rearrangement versus using the quadratic formula?
The quadratic formula always works (as long as one considers complex numbers). "Simple rearrangement" may be quicker when the numbers look simple enough for you to decide (or rather guess) what the factors/ roots are by inspection (but the "rearrangement" method still works -- the numbers may just be more complicated). Probably the easiest quadratic is when the coefficient of x is zero (i.e. a polynomial of the form ax^2+b=0) or when there is no constant term (i.e. ax^2+bx=0) The quadratic formula cannot be used to solve an equation if a term in the equation has a degree higher than 2 (or if it can't be put in the form ax^2+bx+c=0). There are other more complex formulas for polynomials for degree 3 and 4.

Why use quadratic formula?
Using the quadratic formula to solve any quadratic equation is the best way of getting around it because the quadratic formula is "the opposite of b plus or minus the square root of b squared minus 4ac all divided by 2a. This formula only works with trinomials and second degree equaitons. If the equation is a binomial, then put in a placeholer (0) and substitute them into the equation.
A polynomial equation of degree two?
A Quadratic
How do you know if a equation is a quadratic one?
You know an equation is quadratic by looking at the degree of the highest power in the equation. If it is 2, then it is quadratic. so any equation or polynomial of the form: ax2 +bx+c=0 where a is NOT 0 and a, b and c are known as the quadratic coefficients is a quadratic equation.
What is a polynomial equation of degree two called?
quadratic

Would the cross section of a satellite dish be modeled by a linear or a quadratic equation?
The satellite dish is a parabolic reflector. A parabola cannot be modeled by a linear equation because a linear equation is one that graphs as a straight line. It takes a second degree expression to plot it, and that means a quadratic equation.
Quadratic equation definition?
An equation of the second degree, meaning it contains at least one term that is squared.
An equation with a degree of 2?
An equation with a degree of 2 is called a quadratic equation. At least one term in the equation will have a variable raised to the second power, e.g. x²
A condition that must be met before you can use the quadratic formula to find the solutions?
The equation must be written such that the right side is equal to zero. And the resulting equation must be a polynomial of degree 2.
