QUADRATIC FORM-YOU-

LOVE

1. First you need to organize your terms. This includes collecting all like terms to the same side and putting the equation into standard form.

2. Next you need to identify what numbers are a, b, and c.

• Ex. 80+5x=5x2-601. 5x2-5x+20=02. 5=a, -5=b, 20=c

ORGANIZE AND IDENTIFY

Remember, the formula is:

1.Insert the numbers into their respective locations.

x=− (−5 )±√ (−5 )2−4(5)(20)

2(5)

INSERT INTO THE FORM-YOU-LOVE

1.First you square the a term.

2.You then find the product of 4ac.

3.You then subtract that product

from the square of a.

4.Last, you find the square root of

the difference. If the difference is

negative, remember to break down

the number to its positive and

negative one. The square root of

negative one becomes i.

SIMPLIFY THE RADICAL

1.Multiply the b term by negative one.

2.Multiply the a term by two in the denominator.

3.If possible, simplify the coefficients in the denominator and nominator.

Simplify the rest of the form-you-

love

• In some cases you will be able to simplify further.

THE END

This is only one way that you can find the factors of

a quadratic equation. There are still complete the

square and the factor box.

But really

IN THE END,IT DOESN’T EVEN MATTER
