What's the first step to solve quadratics by factoring

Step 1. Write the equation in standard form.


100

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

Make sure that it is written in standard form and = to 0

ax2 + bx + c =0

(Remember, when y is 0 you will find the x-intercepts) (x,0)

When solving using the quadratic formula, what is the first 2 things you should do?

1st - make sure it is in standard form 

(ax2 + bx + c = 0

2nd - Write down the values of;

a = 

b =

c =

100

What do you have to do first to solve quadratics equation by taking square roots?

Isolate the square.

How is standard form written for a quadratic equation?

y = ax2 + bx + c   

            or

ax2 + bx + c = 0

What do you have to do after you 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.
