Condone a single computational error provided that there xx) ( (x) (x)(x) is no conceptual error. Do not condone omission of brackets unless it is clear from subsequent work that they were assumed. x 3x x any fully correct multiplied out form (including say, if s correctly cancelled) soi x 3x = 0 = x(x 3) D dependent on first.for any method leading to both solutions. Collecting like terms and forming quadratic (= 0) and attempting to solve *(provided that it is a quadratic and b² 4ac 0).Using either correct quadratic equation formula (can be error when substituting), factorising (giving correct x² and constant terms when factors multiplied out), completing the square oe soi.* x = 0 or 3 for both solutions www.
