Takeaways

• 😀 Quadratic equations have the general form: ax² + bx + c = 0, where 'a', 'b', and 'c' are real numbers, and 'a' must not be equal to 0.
• 😀 'a' is the coefficient of x², 'b' is the coefficient of x, and 'c' is the constant, which does not contain any variables.
• 😀 To identify the coefficients from a quadratic equation, look for the numbers in front of x², x, and the constant term.
• 😀 Example 1: In the equation x² + 5x + 6 = 0, a = 1, b = 5, and c = 6.
• 😀 Example 2: In the equation x² - 3 = 0, a = 1, b = 0, and c = -3.
• 😀 Example 3: In the equation 10 + x² - 6x = 0, a = 1, b = -6, and c = 10.
• 😀 To factor a quadratic equation, it must be rewritten as (x + x1)(x + x2) = 0, where x1 and x2 are the solutions.
• 😀 The sum of x1 and x2 should equal b, and their product should equal c.
• 😀 Example of factoring: For x² + 5x + 6 = 0, the factors are (x + 3)(x + 2) = 0, with solutions x = -3 and x = -2.
• 😀 Another factoring example: For x² - 3x - 10 = 0, the factors are (x - 5)(x + 2) = 0, with solutions x = 5 and x = -2.
• 😀 When solving quadratic equations by factoring, the solutions come from setting each factor equal to 0 and solving for x.

Q & A

What is the general form of a quadratic equation?

The general form of a quadratic equation is ax² + bx + c = 0, where a, b, and c are real numbers, and a cannot be equal to 0.

What does each component (a, b, and c) represent in the quadratic equation?

In the quadratic equation ax² + bx + c = 0, 'a' is the coefficient of x², 'b' is the coefficient of x, and 'c' is the constant term that does not contain any variables.

What is the importance of the coefficient 'a' in a quadratic equation?

The coefficient 'a' is important because it determines the shape and direction of the parabola represented by the quadratic equation. If 'a' is not equal to 0, it ensures the equation is quadratic.

How do you identify the values of a, b, and c from a quadratic equation?

To identify the values of a, b, and c, examine the equation and match the coefficients with the corresponding terms: the coefficient of x² is 'a', the coefficient of x is 'b', and the constant term is 'c'.

What is meant by 'factorizing' a quadratic equation?

Factorizing a quadratic equation means rewriting it as a product of two binomials. For example, x² + 5x + 6 = 0 can be factored into (x + 3)(x + 2) = 0.

What are the steps involved in factoring a quadratic equation?

To factor a quadratic equation, first find two numbers that add up to 'b' and multiply to 'c'. Then, rewrite the equation as a product of two binomials, and solve for the values of x.

In the example x² + 5x + 6 = 0, what are the values of a, b, and c?

In the equation x² + 5x + 6 = 0, the values are a = 1, b = 5, and c = 6.

How do you find the two numbers that factor the quadratic equation x² + 5x + 6 = 0?

The two numbers are 3 and 2, because 3 + 2 = 5 (the value of b), and 3 * 2 = 6 (the value of c).

What are the solutions to the quadratic equation x² + 5x + 6 = 0 after factoring?

The solutions to the equation x² + 5x + 6 = 0, after factoring as (x + 3)(x + 2) = 0, are x = -3 and x = -2.

How do you solve the quadratic equation x² - 3x - 10 = 0 by factoring?

To factor x² - 3x - 10 = 0, find two numbers that add up to -3 and multiply to -10. The numbers are -5 and 2. The equation factors as (x - 5)(x + 2) = 0, giving solutions x = 5 and x = -2.
