Solving Quadratic Equation by Using The Quadratic Formula
2
−𝑏 ± √ 𝑏 −4 𝑎𝑐
𝑥=
2𝑎
ax2 + bx + c = 0
Standard Form: x2 + 5x – 4 = 0
Values:
a=1
b=5
c = -4
Getting the values of a, b, and c
Example 2: -4x2 = 8x – 3
Standard Form: x2 + 2x – 3 = 0
Values:
a=1
b=2
c = -3
Examples:
2) x2 + 2x – 3 = 0
Values: a = 1, b = 2, c = -3
Use the formula
Substitute the values
Simplify
Standard Form: x2 – 7x – 10 = 0
Values:
a=1
b = -7
c = -10
Examples:
3) x2 - 7x = -10
Values: a = 1, b = -7,c = -10
Use the formula
Substitute the values
Simplify
Solve for the value of x
Examples:
4) x2 – 4x = 14
Standard Form: x2 – 4x – 14 = 0
Values:
a=1
b = -4
c = -14
Examples:
4) x2 - 7x = -10 Values: a = 1, b = -4, c = -14
Use the formula
Substitute the values
Simplify
1) x2 – 2x – 15 = 0 2) 3x2 – 7x + 2 = 0
a= b= c= a= b= c=
