1. Quadratics 3102.3.30 Solve quadratic equations using multiple methods: factoring, graphing, quadratic formula, or square root principle.
2. What is a Quadratic?? The standard form for any quadratic equation is ax2 + bx + c = 0
There are many ways to solve quadratic equations. Below are the ways that we will solve them.
Factoring
Graphing
Quadratic Formula
Square root principle
3. First, FACTORING!! We will first factor a quadratic expression and solve for the unknown in the equation.
We will begin to factor quadratic expressions with a = 1.
4. First problem! x2 + 7x + 12 = 0 ( x ) ( x ) =0 Now set each set of parentheses equal to zero. x + 3 = 0 x + 4 = 0 x = -3 x = -4 Put your answers in set notation { -3 , -4}
