Solve quadratics by Square Roots & Quadratic Formula

-5x² = -50

• ± 5
• ± 10
• ± √10
• -10

What are the values of x does the quadratic equation 3(x - 2)² = 27 have?

• x = 7 and x = -1

• x = 1 and x = -7

• x = 5 and x = -1

• x = 1 and x = -5

What should you do first in solving this equation using the quadratic formula? x² + 6x - 13 = 3

• Get factored form
• Write down: a=1, b=6, c=-13
• Make it equal 0 by subtracting 3 on each side
• Type it all in a calculator.

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

The discriminant is

• aX²  + bX  +  c
• b - 4ac
• b² - 4ac
• b² + 4ac

If the discriminant equals 0, then the quadratic has:

• 1 Real Solution
• 2 Real Solutions
• Half a Solution
• 2 Imaginary Solutions
