Solving Quadratic Equations That Are Not Written in Standard Form
Standard Form of Quadratic Equation: ax2 + bx + c = 0, where x is the variable and a, b and
c are constants (a ≠ 0)
Example 1: Solve
Use any of the four methods in finding the solutions of the quadratic equation
Check whether the obtained values of x make the equation true. If the
obtained values of x make the equation true, then the solutions of the
equation are: or .
The given equation is a quadratic equation but it is not written in standard form.
Transform this equation to standard form, then solve it using any of the methods of
solving quadratic equations.
write the given equation
simplify the square of a binomial
combine like terms
transform to standard form of quadratic equation
The given rational algebraic equation can be transformed into a quadratic equation.
To solve the equation, the following procedure can be followed.
write the given equation
multiply both sides of the equation by the Least Common Denominator (LCD) 4x.
( )
