Fungus can enter through wounds to stalk or ear; ear rot is caused by the fungus infecting silks and moving down through the ear; fungus survives on corn debris in soil and on debris of other host plants such as wheat.
Standard form algebra is used to write down the complex equations in a simple form i.e. to write a large equation very easily. For example standard form of a linear equations is ax + by + c= 0, standard form of quadratic equation is ax2 + bx + c = 0. Standard form algebra is used to find out the factors. So the factors are (3x - 1) and (x + 4). arrange them in an order now.
Note: General Form always has x 2 + y 2 for the first two terms. Going From General Form to Standard Form. Now imagine we have an equation in General Form: x 2 + y 2 + Ax + By + C = 0. How can we get it into Standard Form like this? (x-a) 2 + (y-b) 2 = r 2. The answer is to Complete the Square (read about that) twice ... once for x and once for y: Example: x 2 + y 2 - 2x - 4y - 4 = 0 Start with: x 2 + y 2 - 2x - 4y - 4 = 0
