solving quadratic equations

What should you do first in solving this equation?
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

Factor x²-11x+24

• (x-3)(x-8)
• (x-2)(x-12)
• (x+3)(x+8)
• (x+2)(x+12)

Solve for the values of x:
(x + 2)(x - 3) = 0

• { 2, 3 }
• { -2, -3 }
• { 2, 3 }
• { -2, 3 }

Solve by factoring

• -4, 2

• -2, 4

• -16

• -4

Solve

2x² + 2x − 12 = 0

• x = −2, 3

• x = 2, 3

• x = 2, −3

• x = −2, −3
