9-5 Quadratic Formula Objectives: Solve quadratic equations using the quadratic formula. Determine the number of solutions of a quadratic equation using the discriminant.
Discriminant • The stuff under the square root –
Example 2: Find the discriminant then solve using the quadratic formula. a. b.
You try... e. f. g. h.
Let’s look back at the Discriminant • The stuff under the square root – • Look back at our examples and the discriminant of each… • What does this tell us?
