I'm terrible with math, all the rules and exceptions with so many different circumstances. I don't work well with it.
Anyways, I have a decent understanding of basic rational roots and factoring... but have trouble with, well, for example...
25b^4-34b^2+9=0
If someone could lists the steps as to how I factor and resolve this, I would appreciate it.

-
25b^4-34b^2+9=0
b^2(25b^2 - 34) = 9
1. b^2 = 9
b = 3
2. 25b^2 = 34
b^2 = 34/25
b = sq rt of 34/25
b^2(25b^2 - 34) = 9
1. b^2 = 9
b = 3
2. 25b^2 = 34
b^2 = 34/25
b = sq rt of 34/25
