Solving Quadratic Equations by Factoring
a. What are the factors that contribute to garbage segregation and disposal?
As an ordinary citizen, what can we do to help solve the garbage problem in our community?
2
a. x – 9x + 20
2
b. x – 8x + 12
2
c. x + 14x +48
2
d. x – x – 6
2
e. x + 7x – 18
Illustrative Example:
One positive number exceeds another by 5. The sum of their squares is 193. Find both numbers.
Some quadratic equations can be solved easily by factoring. To solve such equations, the
following procedure can be followed.
1. Transform the quadratic equation using standard form in which one side is zero.
2. Factor the non-zero side.
3. Set each factor to zero.
4. Solve each resulting equation.
5. Check the values of the variable obtained by substituting each in the original equation.
