Objective: Students will be able to solve a quadratic equation by factoring.
A QUADRATIC EQUATION is in the form:
When we factor, we look to find two number that…
Key Question: What happens if a 1 or 1 ?
1. How can we factor 2x 2 6x 4 0 ?
We can factor this quadratic by first finding the GCF (___________________)!
In this example the GCF=________.
2. How can we factor x 2 6x 0 ?
In this example the GCF=_________.
3. How can we factor 5 x 2 15x 0
In this example the GCF=_________.
Factor each equation to find the solutions.
1. 3x2 - 3x = 0
6. 4x2-4x = 0
2. 33x2 + 363x = 0
7. 10x2-20x+10 = 0
3. -33x2 - 330x = 0
8. x2-14x = 0
4. 12x2 – 5x = 0
9. x3+7x2+12x = 0
5. 3x3+18x2+24x = 0
10. 4x2 – 48x = 0
Mixed practice: Solve for x in each equation.
11. x2+100=-20x
19. 4x2-36x=0
12. 2x2 – 16x – 18 = 0
13.
5x2+3x+2=0
14.
x2
20. x2 = 11x
21. (x-5)(x+6)=0
– 8x=20
22. x2 + 48 = 16x
15. 6x2 + 66x + 180=0
23. -11x2 + 66x = 88
16. x2-7x=0
17.
-3x2
18.
x2
24. x2 - 7x + 6 = 0
– 15x + 150=0
+ x = 90
25. x2 – 100 = 0
When I have a quadratic expression, the first thing I look to do is
