Using the Quadratic Formula lets you solve Quadratic Equations.

You need more than one equation to solve it. At least 1 more, but up to about 3 or 4 I believe. Since if you substitute away equations you can solve for different variables.

Oh. I misunderstood the question.

You're talking about the standard form quadratic equation.

QQ I hate factoring..

You can use either. If you have integer roots, factorisation is much quicker and cleaner. Otherwise, quadratic's the way to go.
