Solve this quadratic equation by factoring.

X2 + 16 = 10x

x2 - 10x + 16 =0

       (x-2)(x-8)

               x = 2 or x = 8

What's the first thing you have to do to complete the square?

Divide all terms by the leading coefficient


ax2 + bx + c =0

200

Are these steps right?

Step 1. Identify a, b, and c and plug them into the quadratic formula.

Step 2. Use the order of operations to simplify the quadratic formula.

Step 3. Find the positive answer only. 

No - both answers work.  (Negative answers are OK too)

Solve this equation by taking square roots.

(x-4)2 - 16 = 0

(x-4)2 = 16

x- 4 =±  4 

x = 0 or 8

Solve this quadratics equation by factoring.

18x2 - 3x = 6

18x2 - 3x -6 = 0

       =  3(6x2 - x - 2) = 0

       =  3(3x -2)(2x +1)= 0

       =  3x -2 = 0   2x + 1 = 0

        x = 2/3 or x -1/2

What do you have to do after first step to complete the square?

Step 2. Move the c value term to the right side of the equation.

Step 3. Add (b/2)^2 to both sides.     

Step 4:Write as a perfect square. 

Step 5. Take the square root on both sides of the equation.                                   

Step 6. Finish solving for x.

Solve x- 8x + 14 = 0 using the quadratic formula. 


x = -(-8) ±√ (-8)- 4(1)(14) / 2(1)

 = 8 ±√ 8 / 2

 = 5.41 and 2.59

What's the first step to solve quadratics by factoring

Step 1. Write the equation in standard form.


400

Solve x− 6x − 3 = 0  by completing the square.


x2−6x=3

x2−6x+(−3)2=3+9

(x−3)2=12

x−3=±√12  

x=6.46 and -.46

What do you have to do after write the equation in the standard form?

Step 2. Factor completely.

Step 3. Use the zero product property.

Step 4. Solve each factor to get the x.

Solve x2 - 6x + 7 = 0

x2 - 6x = -7

x2 -6x + (3)2 = -7 + 9

x2 -6x + 9 = 2

(x-3)2 = 2

x -3 = ± √2   

x = 4.42 and 1.59
