23. - 4ac And he missed out on 4 awesome chicks

24. 2a But it was all over at 2 am

25. When do we use the Q.F.? When trying to find solutions: First try: x - puzzle - Uh oh! x-puzzle doesn’t work! Second try: quadratic formula Write a sentence in your own words describing when to use the Q.F.

26. Example 1: 2x 2 - 5x + 4 = 0 a = 2b = -5c = 4 (-5) 2 (2)(4) (2) -(-5)

27. Example 3: 5x 2 + 4x - 2 = 0 a = 5b = 4c = -2 (4) 2 (5)(-2) (5) -(4)

28. Example 2: 2x 2 - 8x + 1 = 0 a = 2b = -8c = 1 (-8) 2 (2)(1) (2) -(-8)
