Quadratic Equation: An equation that can be written in the standard form ax2 + bx + c = 0. Where a, b and c are real numbers and "a" does not = 0.

Vertex: The highest or lowest point on a parabola.

Zero of a Function: An x value that makes the y value equal to zero.

Slide 8 / 178

A quadratic equation is an equation of the form ax2 + bx + c = 0 , where "a" is not equal to 0.

The form ax 2 + bx + c = 0 is called the standard form of the quadratic equation.

The standard form is not unique. For example, x2 - x + 1 = 0 can be written as the equivalent equation -x2 + x - 1 = 0.

Also, 4x2 - 2x + 2 = 0 can be written as the equivalent equation 2x2 - x + 1 = 0. Why is this equivalent?

The graph of a quadratic is a parabola, a u-shaped figure.

The parabola will open upward or downward.

← upward→downward

Slide 14 / 178

A parabola that opens upward contains a vertex that is a minimum point. A parabola that opens downward contains a vertex that is a maximum point.

The domain of a quadratic function is all real numbers.

Slide 16 / 178

To determine the range of a quadratic function, ask yourself two questions: Is the vertex a minimum or maximum? What is the y-value of the vertex?

If the vertex is a minimum, then the range is all real numbers greater than or equal to the y-value.

The range of this quadratic is -6 to

Slide 17 / 178

If the vertex is a maximum, then the range is all real numbers less than or equal to the y-value.

The range of this quadratic is to 10

An axis of symmetry (also known as a line of symmetry) will divide the parabola into mirror images. The line of symmetry is always a vertical line. It is found using the following equation:

x=2

Slide 19 / 178

To find the axis of symmetry simply plug the values of a and b into the equation: Remember the form ax 2 + bx + c. In this example a = 2, b = -8 and c =2

Slide 20 / 178

The x-intercepts are the points at which a parabola intersects the x-axis. These points are also known as zeroes, roots or solutions and solution sets. Each quadratic equation will have two, one or no real x-intercepts.

Solving Quadratic Equationsby Factoring

Review of factoring - To factor a quadratic trinomial of the form x2 + bx + c, find two factors of c whose sum is b.

Example - To factor x 2 + 9x + 18, look for factors whose sum is 9.Factors of 18 Sum

1 and 18 19

2 and 9 11

3 and 6 9 x 2 + 9x + 18 = (x + 3)(x + 6)

Slide 79 / 178

When c is positive, its factors have the same sign.

The sign of b tells you whether the factors are positive or negative.

When b is positive, the factors are positive.When b is negative, the factors are negative.

Slide 80 / 178

Remember the FOIL method for multiplying binomials

1. Multiply the F irst terms (x + 3)(x + 2) x x = x 2

2. Multiply the O uter terms (x + 3)(x + 2) x 2 = 2x 3. Multiply the Inner terms (x + 3)(x + 2) 3 x = 3x

4. Multiply the Last terms (x + 3)(x + 2) 3 2 = 6

(x + 3)(x + 2) = x 2 + 2x + 3x + 6 = x 2 + 5x + 6

Solving quadratic equations by completing the square:

Step 1 - Write the equation in the form x 2 + bx = c

Step 2 - Find (b ÷ 2)2

Step 3 - Complete the square by adding (b ÷ 2)2 to both sides of the equation.

Step 4 - Factor the perfect square trinomial.

Step 5 - Take the square root of both sides

Step 6 - Write two equations, using both the positive and negative square root and solve each equation.

The product of two consecutive negative integers is 1,122. What are the numbers?

Remember that consecutive integers are one unit apart, so the numbers are n and n + 1.

Multiplying to get the product:n(n + 1) = 1122 n2 + n = 1122 n2 + n - 1122 = 0 (n + 34)(n - 33) = 0

n = -34 and n = 33.

Did you try the quadratic formula?

2x = -20 ±√400 - 4(1)(-4800)

x = -20 ±√19,6002

x = 60 or x = -80

Since the distance cannot be negative, discard the negative solution. The distances are 60 miles and 60 + 20 = 80 miles.

Step 6 - Check your answers.

The length of a rectangle is 6 inches more than its width. The area of the rectangle is 91 square inches. Find the dimensions of the rectangle.

Step 1 - Draw the picture of the rectangle. Let the width = x and the length = x + 6

Step 2 - Write the equation using theformula Area = length x width

x + 6

Slide 164 / 178

Step 3 - Solve the equation

x( x + 6) = 91

x2 + 6x = 91

x2 + 6x - 91 = 0

(x - 7)(x + 13) = 0

x = 7 or x = -13

Since a length cannot be negative...

The width is 7 and the length is 13.

77 A rocket is launched from the ground and follows a parabolic path represented by the equation y = -x 2 + 10x. At the same time, a flare is launched from a height of 10 feet and follows a straight path represented by the equation y = -x + 10. Using the accompanying set of axes, graph the equations that represent the paths of the rocket and the flare, and find the coordinates of the point or points where the paths intersect.
