Which is the standard form for a quadratic equation?
x=2a−b±b2−4ac
ax2+bx+c=0
y=a(x−h)2+k
a2+b2=c2
When using the Quadratic Formula solve a quadratic equation, what must be true?
The equation must be set equal to 1.
The equation must be set equal to 10.
The equation must be set equal to 0.
It is not necessary to set the equation equal to anything.
What should you do first in solving this equation?
x2 + 6x - 13 = 3
Factor
Write down: a = 1, b = 6, c = -13
Subtract 3 from both sides.
Add 13 to both sides.
Write in the standard form 7 + 2x = 5x2
5x2 + 2x + 7 = 0
5x2 - 2x - 7 = 0
-5x2 + 7 + 2x = 0
2x + 7 + -5x2 = 0
Determine the values of a, b, and c for
the quadratic equation: 4x2 – 8x = 3
a = 4, b = -8, c = 3
a = 4, b =-8, c =-3
a = 4, b = 8, c = 3
a = 4, b = 8, c = -3
3x2−10x+1=0
Solve using the quadratic formula. Leave your answer in exact form.
x=6−10±88
x=3−5±222
x=610±112
x=35±22
2x2=8x+3
