Quadratic Functions

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 the equation equal 0 by subtracting 3 on each side

• Type it all in a calculator.

Solve    
2x² + 7x - 15 = 0

• -1.5 or 5

• No Solution

• -5 or 1.5

• 0.7 or 5

Solve for x.  Round to the nearest hundredth if necessary.
3x² = 16x + 12

• x = -.67, 6

• x = -6, .67

• x = 3.33, 18

• x = -3.33, 18

Solve for x.  Round to the nearest hundredth if necessary.
2x² = -x + 3

• x = -1, 1.5

• x = 1.5, -1

• x = 1, 1.5

• x = -1.5, 1

What is this formula?

• This is the speed of light formula.

• This is the quadratic formula.

• This is the zero product property.

• This is scary.

If b²-4ac is negative, the quadratic equation has:

• Two real solutions that are different

• Two imaginary solutions that are different

• One real solution

• One imaginary solution

In the equation
y = x² +5x +7, match each leading coefficient with its correct letter 

• a=0, b=5, c=7

• a=1, b=5, c=7

• a=7, b=5, c=1

Solve Using the Quadratic Formula 
2x² + 7x - 15 = 0

• -1.5 or 5

• No Solution

• -5 or 1.5

• 0.7 or 5

Solve Using the Quadratic Formula
 x² + 4x - 40 = -8

• -10 & -4

• -4 & 10

• -8 & 4

• 8 & -4

If b²-4ac is positive, the quadratic equation has:

• Two real solutions that are different

• Two imaginary solutions that are different

• One real solution

• One imaginary solution
