Quadratic Equation
Quadratic Equation
The constants a, b, and c are called respectively, the quadratic coefficient, the
linear coefficient and the constant term or free term.
Quadratic and Roots 2
• is a quadratic equation. (a ≠ 0)
• The name Quadratic comes from "quad" meaning square, because the
variable gets squared (like x 2 ).
• It is also called an "Equation of Degree 2" (because of the "2" on the x)
• Thus has two roots.
Example Of Quadratic Equation 3
We can Factor the Quadratic (find what to multiply to make the Quadratic
Equation).
+ 6y = 8
+ 6y + 9 = 8 + 9
y+3=± =±1
y=3±1
y = -4 , y = -2
3. Using the Quadratic Formula 8
• Another technique for solving quadratic equations is to use the quadratic
formula. The formula is derived from completing the square of a general
quadratic equation. A quadratic equation written in standard form,
ax2 + bx + c = 0, has the solutions.
= -1, -0.2
