I am failing algebra 2 and this CANNOT happen!!!  I understand how to set it all up with the equation and the formula (a,b,c) and I can solve it up to the last part when you have to simplify it. I cant simplify it. So as an example: <IMG STYLE=\"max-width:80%;\" SRC=/cgi-bin/plot-formula.mpl?expression=+1x%5E2+-+4x+%2B+4+=+0+ ALIGN=MIDDLE  ALT=\"+1x%5E2+-+4x+%2B+4+=+0+\"   DISABLED_style= \"max-width:90%; height:auto;\" > as an answer I got <IMG STYLE=\"max-width:80%;\" SRC=/cgi-bin/plot-formula.mpl?expression=+4%2B-+sqrt%28-32%29+over+1+ ALIGN=MIDDLE  ALT=\"+4%2B-+sqrt%28-32%29+over+1+\"   DISABLED_style= \"max-width:90%; height:auto;\" > and I simplified that to <IMG STYLE=\"max-width:80%;\" SRC=/cgi-bin/plot-formula.mpl?expression=+4%2B-+4+sqrt%28-8%29+ ALIGN=MIDDLE  ALT=\"+4%2B-+4+sqrt%28-8%29+\"   DISABLED_style= \"max-width:90%; height:auto;\" >   please help me! I have a test coming up and my teacher is certainly not the most understanding guy. Thanks again for considering my problem :) </SPAN>\n" );
