Solve Quadratic Equations Using Quadratic Equation

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

x² + 4x + 1 = 0

• x = -2 ± √3

• x = -3 ± √2

• x = 2 ± √3

• x = 2 ± √2

How many solutions are there?

• 0

• 1

• 2

• 3

Solve using the Quadratic Formula:

2x² + 2x − 12 = 0

• x = −2, 3

• x = 2, 3

• x = 2, −3

• x = −2, −3

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.
