1) When you are solving a quadratic equation you are finding the
__________________ on the graph.
x - intercepts
2) Solve each equation by finding the square roots. If the equation
has no solution, write "no solution"
a) b2 = 441
b = ±21
= ±2.24
b) x2 - 9 = -16
no solution
c) 3x2 - x2 = 10

Poster Project!!
1. You will be working in groups of 2 or 3
2. Work out all of the parts of the baseball problem together
3. Make a poster of your work from parts (d) - (f) of the problem.
Criteria for the poster:
- Must have a clear title
- Must be presented clearly and large enough to see
(NEAT, ORGANIZED, COLORFUL, CREATIVE)
- Must show correct answers and all work for parts (d) (f)
- Must have the graph represented
Criteria for the Graph:
- Must be graphed NEATLY (use a ruler to make straight
lines!)
and the
(f)
- Must be done large enough to see
- Both axes must be labeled correctly (name of the axes
scale that was used)
- Has the four ordered pairs from the work in parts (d) plotted and labeled correctly
