Solving Quadratic Equations

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

Determine the values of
a, b, and c for
the quadratic equation: 
4x² – 8x = 3

• a = 4, b = -8, c = 3
• a = 4, b =-8, c =-3
• a = 4, b = 8, c = 3
• a = 4, b = 8, c = -3

Identify the 'b' value: y = 16x² -8x -24

• 16
• -8
• 8
• -24

Identify the 'c' value: y = 16x² -8x -24

• 16
• -8
• 8
• -24

The quadratic equation can be used to solve quadratic equations that cannot be factored.

• True
• False
