Solving Quadratic Functions Lesson 5-3
Objective • Today, you will . . . • solve quadratic functions by using a variety of methods. TEKS:b2A,d1A,d3A,d3C,d3D
Some Notes on Quadratic Functions • The graphs of quadratic functions are parabolas. • The solution(s) that you will be looking for are the x-intercepts of the parabola. • The x-intercepts are also called the “roots,” “solutions,” or the “zeros” • Quadratic functions can have one, two, or no real solutions. • Quadratic functions that have no real solutions have complex (imaginary) solutions.
Different Graphs of Quadratics Two real solutions X=-6 X=1 x-intercepts, roots, zeros
Different Graphs of Quadratics One real solutions X=3 x-intercept, root, zero
Different Graphs of Quadratics No real solutions No Solution No x-intercepts (roots or zeros)
Today you’ll find… • The solutions to quadratic equations by factoring • For example: GIVEN: y = Ax2 + Bx + C FIND:The solutions, roots, zeros, or x-intercepts
Solve by factoring: x2 + 9x + 20 = 0 1 x 20 2 x 20 4 x 5 x2 + 9x + 20 = 0 (x + 5)(x + 4) = 0 x + 5 = 0 x + 4 = 0 x = - 5 x = - 4 So, its two roots, solutions, zeros are -5 & -4
Solve by factoring: x2 = -7x + 18 x2 + 7x - 18 = 0 1 x 18 2 x 9 3 x 6 Hint: The sign of “B” goes with the largest factor! (x - 2)(x + 9) = 0 x + 9 = 0 x - 2 = 0 x = 2 x = - 9 So, its two roots, solutions, zeros are 2 & -9
Solve by factoring: x2 + 100 = 29x 1 x 100 2 x 50 4 x 25 5 x 20 10 x 10 x2 - 29x + 100 = 0 (x - 4)(x - 25) = 0 x - 4 = 0 x - 25 = 0 x = 4 x = 25 So, its two roots, solutions, zeros are 4& 25
Solve by factoring: x2 - 9 = 0 1 x 9 3 x 3 x2 - 9 = 0 (x + 3)(x - 3) = 0 x + 3 = 0 x - 3 = 0 x = - 3 x = 3 So, its two roots, solutions, zeros are -3 & 3
Solve by factoring: x2 + x = 6 1 x 6 2 x 3 x2 + x - 6 = 0 Hint: The sign of “B” goes with the largest factor! (x - 2)(x + 3) = 0 x - 2 = 0 x + 3 = 0 x = 2 x = - 3 So, its two roots, solutions, zeros are 2 & -3
Solve by factoring: x2 - 6x = - 8 x = 2 1 x 8 2 x 4 x = 4 Solve by factoring: x2 - 8 = - 7x x = 1 1 x 8 2 x 4 x = - 8
