What's so bad about quadratics? What's so bad about polynomials in general?

All of algebra is just knowing how to add, subtract, multiply, divide, and work with equations and inequalities. If you can move symbols around correctly and deal with fractions, then you're set. Sure, there are some nifty facts that "algebra tests" would like you to learn, but that's no more difficult than learning the basic rules to begin with.

2xsuper3 X 4ysuper2 + 6z(a - b over c) over sq.rt d = 7

Poorly posed question: You've given me one equation with 6 unknowns. What's the question?
