    X equals negative B

    Plus or minus the square root

    Of B squared minus 4AC

    All over 2A

    Sang to the tune of pop goes the weasel.

    I haven’t done pre-calc in like 10 years, but this song still lives rent free in my head.

      I learned similarly but to the tune of the Flintstones theme.

      “Neg B / Plus or minus / Square root of b squared minus 4AC / It’s all / Over 2A / That’s the quadratic formul-ee” (to rhyme with 4AC).

      You can also do it to the chorus of Rollin’ in the Deep. I teach both to my Algebra students.
