WARM UP What do you remember?...
2
QUADRATIC EQUATIONS SECTION 5.5
3
OBJECTIVES By the end of this part of the lesson, you should be able to… Simplify square roots. Solve quadratic equations by finding square roots.
4
SOLVING QUADRATIC EQUATIONS WITH SQUARE ROOTS If a quadratic equation is missing the b term we can solve using square roots. The goal is to get x by itself.

OBJECTIVES By the end of today, you should be able to… Solve quadratic equations by factoring and graphing. What does it mean to solve an equation? Quick Review: When you solve an equation, you’re finding the values that make the statement true.
12
QUADRATIC EQUATIONS Remember - the standard form of a quadratic equation is ax 2 + bx + c = 0, where a ≠ 0. You can solve some quadratic equations in standard form by factoring the quadratic expression and then using… The Zero-Product Property!
13
THE ZERO-PRODUCT PROPERTY The Zero-Product Property helps us solve quadratic equations that have been factored. The Zero-Product Property states: If ab = 0, then a = 0 or b = 0. For example, if (x + 3)(x - 7)=0, then (x + 3) = 0 or (x - 7) = 0.

18
SOLVING BY GRAPHING You can solve a quadratic equation in standard form by graphing its related quadratic function, y = ax 2 + bx +c and finding the x-intercepts. Quadratic equation cannot be solved by factoring Quadratic equation can be solved by graphing!
19
SOLVING BY GRAPHING 1)Write in standard form 2)Graph in your calculator 3)Find the x-intercepts
