Solving Quadratic Equations Unit Test

Solve
x² + 13x + 12 = 0

• x = -12, -1
• x = 12, 1
• x = 13, 1
• x = -13, -1

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

• Get factored form
• Write down: a=1, b=6, c=-13
• Make it equal 0 by subtracting 3 on each side
• Type it all in a calculator.

Determine the values of
a, b, and c for
the quadratic equation: 
4x² – 8x = 3

• a = 4, b = -8, c = 3
• a = 4, b =-8, c =-3
• a = 4, b = 8, c = 3
• a = 4, b = 8, c = -3

Solve the equation: 
5x² - 35x + 60 = 0

• x = 3,  -4
• x = -3,  4
• x = 3,  4
• x = -3,  -4

Use the quadratic formula to solve 2x² + 2x - 12.

• -2, 3

• 2, 3

• 2, -3

• -2, -3

Solve Using the Quadratic Formula
 x² + 4x - 40 = -8

• -10 & -4
• -4 & 10
• -8 & 4
• 8 & -4

What should you do first in solving this equation?

x² + 6x - 13 = 3

• Factor

• Write down: a = 1, b = 6, c = -13

• Subtract 3 from both sides.

• Add 3 to both sides.
