Solving Quadratic Equations by Square Roots and Factoring and Completing the Square

Can this quadratic be solved by BOTH square root method AND difference of squares?
2x² - 7 = 0

• Yes!

• No - just square root method

• No - just difference of squares method

The discriminant is

• ax²  + bx  +  c

• - b/2a

• b² - 4ac

• b² + 4ac

How many zeros does this parabola have? 

• 3

• 2

• 0

• 1

How do I find the "MAGIC Number" when completing the square?

• Move c to the other side

• b value divide by 2 and square 

• Make 2 equations, one = + and one = -

• Square root both sides

What method works 100% of the time? 

• Greatest Common Factor (GCF)

• Quadratic Formula

• Factoring

• Square Root Method

Convert x²-6x+9 to factored form and identify the solution.

• (x-3)(x-3); x=3

• (x+3)(x+3); x=-3

• (x+4)(x+2); x=-4, -2

• Not factorable

Solve the following quadratics equation by completing the square...

x² - 6x + 2 = 0

• x = -3 ± √7

• x = 3 ± √7

• x = 7 ± √3

• x = -7 ± √3

Solve the following quadratics equation by completing the square... x² + 2x - 5 = 0

• x = -1 ± √6

• x = 1 ± √6

• x = 6 ± √1

• x = -6 ± √1

Solve
4m² - 100 = 0

• m=25, -25

• m=96

• m=5, -5

• m=-96

Solve
a² + 2a - 24 = 0

• a = -6, 4

• a = 6, -4

• a = 12, -2

• a = 8, -3
