Hi CPhill,

 Thank you kindly...I was just wondering how would I render the answer mathematically...meaning, how would the sum, answering the question, look like?...I hope my question makes sense?

Hi Melody, thanx, will do them and send them to you...thank you..

oh my goodness.....I would never have gotten it....How do you and Alan and the rest just KNOW all the answers?????????...it's completely beyond me.....

Thank you for making it clear...I will definitely practice that quite a bit before trying to explain to my pupil. God bless!!

Melody...no, I do not understand.....any of it....maybe I can comprehend the Tn value, but honestly, I cannot figure out how and WHY you got the rest..If you don't mind...would you kindly explain?

Hi Melody!!..,

Thank you for explaining it, I will have to sit with this a while though to fully understand this. Thank you kindly..

Hi Alan,

Thank tyou kindly...I have to admit, it's going to take me a while to understand it all....Thanx.

Hi Melody,

I realize it's VERY VERY late to reply, the thing is I forget I have asked a question and sometimes only remember much later...really very sorry...Thank you for the answer....and it is really soooo easy....Like catmg has said, your diagrams are so very helpful....I do appreciate!

CPhill,

I should have minused, not multiply!!...ooh dear me!!!..thank you CPhill!

Hi CPhill,

thank you for the response, I guess I'm getting thrown off track with the fact that I thought the roots had to be squares themselves. my error, thank you kindly..

Hi catmg,

I've got it thanx, my mistake was I thought the first equation already had the factors, but the factors are really only established once the equation is equal to, or more, or less than 0..and not -3.  Thank you kindly.
