    How to solve them

    1. Get everything on one side so the other side is 0.
    2. Factor into two brackets: two numbers that multiply to c and add to b.
    3. Set each bracket to 0 and solve. Check both answers in the original.

    Check the key only once you've finished. A wrong answer is useful: find the first line where your working went wrong, fix that, and redo the problem.
