QUADRATIC EQUATION
A quadratic equation is an equation that could be written as: ax 2 + bx + c = 0. when a 0.
There are three basic methods for solving quadratic equations: factoring, using the quadratic
formula, and completing the square.
FACTORING
To solve a quadratic equation by factoring,
1. Put all terms on one side of the equal sign, leaving zero on the other side.
2. Factor.
3. Set each factor equal to zero.
4. Solve each of these equations.
5. Check by inserting your answer in the original equation.
Example
Factor.
(x – 8) (x + 2) = 0
Example
1. Solve y 2 = – 6 y – 5.
y 2 + 6 y + 5 = 0
Factor.
(y + 5) (y + 1) = 0
To check, y 2 = –6 y – 5
THE QUADRATIC
FORMULA
Many quadratic equations cannot be solved by factoring.
This is generally true when the roots, or answers, are not rational numbers. A second
method of solving quadratic equations involves the use of the following formula:
a, b, and c are taken from the quadratic equation written in its general form of
ax 2 + bx + c = 0
where a is the numeral that goes in front of x 2, b is the numeral that goes in front of x, and c is
the numeral with no variable next to it (a.k.a., “the constant”).
When using the quadratic formula, you should be aware of three possibilities. These three
possibilities are distinguished by a part of the formula called the discriminant.
The discriminant is the value under the radical sign, b 2 – 4 ac. A quadratic equation with real
numbers as coefficients can have the following:
1. Two different real roots if the discriminant b 2 – 4 ac is a positive number.
2. One real root if the discriminant b 2 – 4 ac is equal to 0.
3. No real root if the discriminant b 2 – 4 ac is a negative number.
Example
x 2 – 5 x + 6 = 0
Because the discriminant b 2 – 4 ac is positive, you get two different real roots.
Example produces rational roots. In Example, the quadratic formula is used to solve an equation
whose roots are not rational.
Example
y 2 + 2 y – 2 = 0
Then substitute 1, 2, and –2 for a, b, and c, respectively, in the quadratic formula and simplify.
Note that the two roots are irrational.
COMPLETING THE
SQUARE
A third method of solving quadratic equations that works with both real and imaginary
roots is called completing the square.
2. Make sure that a = 1 (if a ≠ 1, multiply through the equation by before proceeding).
3. Using the value of b from this new equation, add to both sides of the equation to
form a perfect square on the left side of the equation.
4. Find the square root of both sides of the equation.
5. Solve the resulting equation.
Example:
x – 3 = ±2
Solve.
