Solving Quadratics by Factoring and Square Roots

Solve by factoring:  2x²+ 7x + 6 = 0

• x= 3/2 and x = 2
• x = -3/2 and x = -2
• x = 6 and x = 7
• x = -6 and x = -7

Solve by factoring: x² - 9x + 20 = 0

• x = -4 and x = -5
• x = 20 and x = -9
• x = 4 and x = 5
• x = -4 and x = 5

Solve for the values of x:
(2x + 5)(5x - 2) = 0

• { -5/2, -2/5 }
• { -5/2, 2/5 }
• { 5/2, 2/5 }
• { 5/2, -2/5 }

Solve
4m² - 100 = 0

• m=25, -25
• m=96
• m=5, -5
• m=-96

Solve
16a² - 9 = 0

• a = ^-3/₄, ³/₄ 
• a = ^-4/₃, ⁴/₃ 
• a = ^-9/₁₆, ⁹/₁₆ 
• a = ^-16/₉, ¹⁶/₉ 

What is the first step in solving 
(x + 2)(x - 3) = 0      ?

• Plug in zero for x
• Solve for x
• FOIL
• Set each binomial factor equal to zero
