Solving Quadratics by Factoring When a Is 1

Solve using the Zero-Product Property.

(x + 4)(x − 3) = 0

• x = 4 and x = −3

• x = 2 and x = 1

• x = −4 and x = 3

• x = −2 and x = 1

Factor and Solve: Remember the two numbers you choose when factoring, are not your solutions to the equation!

a² + 2a − 24 = 0

• a = −6, 4

• a = 6, −4

• a = 12, −2

• a = 8, −3
