First factor the quadratic, then set the factors equal to 0 in order to SOLVE.

a² + 2a - 24 = 0

• a = -6, 4

• a = 6, -4

• a = 12, -2

• a = 8, -3

First factor the quadratic, then set the factors equal to 0 in order to SOLVE.

Convert x² - 9x + 20 to factored form and solve.

• (x-10)(x+2); x = -2, 10

• (x+4)(x+5); x = -5, -4

• (x-4)(x-5); x = 4, 5

• Not factorable
