Use the method of completing the square to transform any quadratic equation in x into an equation of the form (x – p)2 = q that has the same solutions. Derive the quadratic formula from this form. b. Solve quadratic equations by inspection (e.g., for x2 = 49), taking square roots, completing the square, the quadratic formula and factoring, as appropriate to the initial form of the equation. Recognize when the quadratic formula gives complex solutions and write them as a ± bi for real numbers a and b 1 What is the solution set of the equation ? 1) 2) {2,8} 3) 4) 5 The solution of the equation 1) 2) 3) 4) 2 If 1) 2) 3) 4) 6 What is the positive solution of the equation ? , the roots of the equation are and 25 , only and 5 , only is 7 Ryker is given the graph of the function .
