+11 or -11

100

Solve the following quadratic equation by completing the square: x² + 6x = -8

x = -2 x = -4

100

Determine the a, b, and c values of the following quadratic.

x = -2 x = -1

200

Solve the following quadratic equation by using square roots: 4x² = 400

x = 10 x = -10

200

Solve the following quadratic equation by completing the square: x² - 6x = -5

x = 1 x = 5

200

Solve the following quadratic equation by using the quadratic formula: x² + 6x + 5 = 0

x = 5 x = 1

300

Solve the following quadratic equation by using square roots: x² -9 = -8

1 or -1

300

Solve the following quadratic equation by completing the square: x² - 2x - 24 = 0

x = -4 x = 6

300

Solve the following quadratic equation by using the quadratic formula: x² - 9x + 20 = 0

x = 5 x = 4

300

Is the following rational or irrational? WHY?

sqrt(100) x sqrt(6)

Irrational. While sqrt(100)=10, sqrt(6) does not simplify and therefore their product is 10sqrt(6) which is irrational.

x = -2 x = -8

400

Solve the following quadratic equation by using the quadratic formula: 2x² + 9x + 4 = 0

x = -1/2 x = -4

400

Rationalize the denominator and simplify.

5/sqrt(10)

sqrt(10)/2

500

Solve the following quadratic equation by using the quadratic formula: 4x² - 17x - 15 = 0

x = 5 x = -3/4

500

Is the following rational or irrational? WHY?

sqrt(3) x sqrt(48)

Rational! Product is sqrt(144) = 12 which is a whole number and therefore rational.
