1. Solving Quadratic Equations by Factoring

2. Remember: When solving a quadratic equation by factoring, you must first start with an equation set equal to ___________and ________________________________. ZERO the leading coefficient is positive

3. Steps: 1) 2) 3) 4) 5) Set=0 and the leading coefficient is positive Factor the polynomial (reverse FOIL) Check the Outers and Inners (oi) Set each binomial =0 (zero product property) Solve each binomial

8. Here is your homework. Have a great weekend
