Solving Quadratic Inequalities Saturday, January 4, 2020 Essential Question: How do we solve quadratic inequalities algebraically? Lesson 3.9B
To solve quadratic inequalities algebraically: Change the inequality symbol to = Get the equation =0 Factor Solve to get “critical x-values” Use a number line to test regions! State the solution
1 –2 Solve the quadratic inequality algebraically. 1. Find the x-intercepts . (x + 2)(x – 1)=0 x = –2 or x = 1 The solutions are x < –2 or x > 1 3
Solve the quadratic inequality algebraically. 2. Find the x-intercepts. x2 – x – 12 = 0 (x + 3)(x – 4)=0 x = –3 or x = 4 The solutions are –3 < x < 4 4
Solve the inequality algebraically 4. x < 1 x > 2
