For this quadratic equation, we said that there are NO REAL SOLUTIONS. Why did we say that?

• Because 3 goes into 9, so those cancel out

• Because we cannot take the square root of a negative number

• Because a has to be equal to 1

• Because there is no c value

What is the error made when saving this quadratic equation?

• There should be 2 answers, because the square root of 9 is -3 and 3

• Taking the square root should always be the first step

• 21 -3 is not 18 so that was a mistake from the start

• The answer should be x = - 4 because the square root of 9 is -3

What is the error made when solving this quadratic equation?

• The answer should only be -2 since the square root of -4 is -2

• The answer should only be 2, because the native cancels out, since we took the square root of a negative

• There is no error, everything was done correctly

• The answer should be no real solutions, since we can't take the square root of a negative
