Solving Quadratics Using Factoring

Solve by factoring: x² - 9x + 20 = 0

• x = -4 and x = -5
• x = 20 and x = -9
• x = 4 and x = 5
• x = -4 and x = 5

Solve by factoring: x² + 3x - 18 = 0

• x = -3 and x = 6
• x = 3 and x = -6
• x = -9 and x = 2
• x = 9 and x = -2

Solve for the values of x:
(x + 2)(x - 3) = 0

• { 2, 3 }
• { -2, -3 }
• { 2, 3 }
• { -2, 3 }

Solve

x² + 2x - 20 = 4

• x = -6, x = 4

• x = 6, x = -4

• x = 12, x = -2

• x = 8, x = -3

What property would you use to solve the following?
(x-3)(x+2)=0

• Commutative Property
• Associative Property
• Zero Product Property
• Inverse Property

What should you do first in solving this equation?
x² + 6x - 13 = 3

• Get factored form
• Find two numbers which add to make 6 and multiply to make -13
• Make it equal 0 by subtracting 3 on each side
• Type it all in a calculator.

Solve using Zero-Product Property.

(2x - 2)(5x + 5) = 0

• x = -1

• x = -1 or x = 1

• x = 1

• x = -2 or x = 5

Solve by factoring

x²+12x+35=0

• x = -5 or x = -7

• x = 5 or x = 7

• x = -35 or x = -1

• x = -9 or x = -4

Solve by factoring:

n² - 2n = 0

• n = 2 and 0

• n = -2 and 0

• n = 2

• n = 0

Solve by factoring

• -4, 2

• -2, 4

• -16

• -4
