The Quadratic Formula.

What Does The Formula Do ? The Quadratic formula allows you to find the roots of a quadratic equation (if they exist) even if the quadratic equation does not factorise. The formula states that for a quadratic equation of the form : ax2 + bx + c = 0 The roots of the quadratic equation are given by :

Example 1 Use the quadratic formula to solve the equation : x 2 + 5x + 6= 0 Solution: x 2 + 5x + 6= 0 a = 1 b = 5 c = 6 x = - 2 or x = - 3 These are the roots of the equation.

Example 2 Use the quadratic formula to solve the equation : 8x 2 + 2x - 3= 0 Solution: 8x 2 + 2x - 3= 0 a = 8 b = 2 c = -3 x = ½ or x = - ¾ These are the roots of the equation.

Example 3 Use the quadratic formula to solve the equation : 8x 2 - 22x + 15= 0 Solution: 8x 2 - 22x + 15= 0 a = 8 b = -22 c = 15 x = 3/2 or x = 5/4 These are the roots of the equation.

Example 4 Use the quadratic formula to solve for x 2x 2 +3x - 7= 0 Solution: 2x 2 + 3x – 7 = 0 a = 2 b = 3 c = - 7 These are the roots of the equation.

The Quadratic Formula The solutions of a quadratic equation of the form ax2 + bx + c = 0, where a ≠ 0, are given by the following formula:

Roots and the Discriminant The Discriminant = b2 – 4ac The value of the Discriminant can be used to determine the number and type of roots of a quadratic equation.

Discriminant b2 – 4ac > 0; b2 – 4ac is a perfect square. Value of Discriminant Type and Number of Roots Example of Graph of Related Function b2 – 4ac > 0; b2 – 4ac is a perfect square. 2 real, rational roots b2 – 4ac > 0; b2 – 4ac is not a perfect square. 2 real, irrational roots b2 – 4ac = 0 1 real, rational root b2 – 4ac < 0 2 complex roots

Describe Roots Find the value of the discriminant for each quadratic equation. Then describe the number and type of roots for the equation. A. The discriminant is 0, so there is one rational root. B. The discriminant is negative, so there are two complex roots.

Describe Roots Find the value of the discriminant for each quadratic equation. Then describe the number and type of roots for the equation. C. The discriminant is 44, which is not a perfect square. Therefore there are two irrational roots. D. The discriminant is 289, which is a perfect square. Therefore, there are two rational roots.
