Warm-Up:
1. Solve by factoring: x2 + 6x - 7 = 0
x = - 7; x = - 1
1a. Now, find the axis of symmetry and vertex
2. Solve by Completing the square: ( )2 = ??
AOS = -3
Vertex = (-3, 16)
2a. What do you notice? 3. When graphing a quadratic, it may be easier/faster to complete the square even if the equation can be factored.
Warm-Up:
3. Graph the parabola f(x) = x2 - 6x + 8. Name the zeros, the vertex coordinates, and the axis of symmetry.4. Find the zeros, axis of symmetry and
vertex coordinates of the parabola y = -2x2 - 12x - 16 = 0
AOS = -3
Vertex = (-2, 2)
Zeros = -3
Warm-Up:
5. Use any method to find the roots, axis of symmetry, and vertex of y = -x2 + 4x - 46. Use any method to find the roots, axis of symmetry, and vertex of 2x2 - 20x + 50 = 07. Factor completely: y2 + 2x + yx + 2y 8. Complete the Square: 25x2 + 40x - 9 = 0
The Quadratic Formula:
x2 + 2x + 1 = 0 x = -1- 2 ± 0 2
The Quadratic Formula:
2. Solve: 2x2 + 5x + 3 = 0Is there an easier way to solve? Factoring?
Square Roots? Completing the square? The quadratic formula is likely the easiest and best method for solving.
x = -1, -1.5
3. Solve: 4x2 + x + 5 = 0
No Real Solution
The Quadratic Formula:
Conjugate: Joined together, especially in a pair. Connected.
x2 + 2x + 1 = 0
x = -1
- 2 ± 0 2
