1. Warm Up – System of Equations
Write equations that represent the costs of printing digital photos at each lab.
Under what conditions is the cost to print digital photos the same for either store.

2. The Quadratic Formula 5-6
SWBAT: Solve quadratic equations using the Quadratic Formula.
Classify roots using the discriminant.
Holt Algebra 2

4. You have learned several methods for solving quadratic equations: graphing, making tables, factoring, using square roots, and completing the square.
Another method is to use the Quadratic Formula, which allows you to solve a quadratic equation in standard form.
By completing the square on the standard form of a quadratic equation, you can determine the Quadratic Formula.

5. Discriminant b2 – 4ac > 0 & a perfect square 2 real, rational roots
Discriminant: is the radicand in the quadratic formula. It is the part of the Quadratic Formula that you can use to determine the number of real roots of a quadratic equation.
b2 – 4ac > 0 & a perfect square
2 real, rational roots
b2 – 4ac > 0 & not a perfect square
2 real, irrational roots
b2 – 4ac = 0
1 real, rational root
b2 – 4ac < 0
2 complex roots

6. Make sure the equation is in standard form before you evaluate the discriminant, b2 – 4ac.
Caution!

7. Analyzing Quadratic Equations by Using the Discriminant
Find the type and number of solutions for the equation. Do not solve completely.
b. x = 12x
a. x = 12x
c. x2 – 4x = –4
d. x2 – 4x = –8
