Solving Quadratic Equations Using Substitution

The video tutorial explains how to solve a quadratic equation using substitution. It begins by identifying the equation's quadratic form and introduces substitution to simplify it. The tutorial then demonstrates factoring the equation and solving for the variable r. Finally, it verifies the solutions by substituting them back into the original equation, ensuring they satisfy the equation.

What is the initial form of the equation given in the problem?

• r^2 + 2r - 3 = 0

• (r + 4)^2 + 2(r + 4) - 3 = 0

• r^2 + 4r + 2 = 0

• (r + 4)^2 - 3 = 0

What substitution is made to simplify the equation?

• u = r - 4

• u = r^2 + 4

• u = r + 4

• u = 2r + 4
