Wednesday 10/23

We continued our pursuit of solving quadratic equations today by solving them using square roots, using Notes #27.

In general, you solve each problem just like a normal linear equation, but use square root to "undo" the square on the variable in step #4. Remember, that quadratic equations will always have two solutions, so make sure you find both of them tonight on your homework.

Tuesday 10/22

Today we used Notes #26 to learn how to solve quadratic equations by factoring.

ax² + bx + c = 0

(x + ?)(x + ?)

Remember to factor the quadratic equation first, then use the Zero Product Property (ab = 0) to find the two values that make each set of parenthesis equal to zero. If that last sentence didn't make sense to you, you've got some studying you need to do (the notes and the link above can help).

If you need some help, please pop into The Community and ask around.

Homework #42: TB pg 454 (#1-19, 27-31 odd)
