Quadratic Inequality Quiz

The video tutorial explains how to solve a quadratic inequality by first setting the inequality to zero, factoring the quadratic equation, and finding the solutions. It then demonstrates how to plot these solutions on a number line, test intervals, and express the solution using interval notation. Finally, the video verifies the solution graphically by highlighting the parts of the graph where the function is above or on the x-axis.

What is the first step in solving a quadratic inequality?

• Add a constant to both sides

• Multiply both sides by a constant

• Set the equation to zero

• Divide both sides by a variable

Which of the following is a factor of the quadratic equation x^2 - 4x - 60?

• x - 6

• x + 10

• x - 10

• x + 6

How are the roots of the quadratic equation represented on a number line when the inequality is 'greater than or equal to'?

• As closed points

• As arrows

• As open points

• As dashed lines

What is the result of substituting x = 11 into the inequality x^2 - 4x - 60 ≥ 0?

• Positive

• Undefined

• Zero

• Negative

What is the solution of the inequality x^2 - 4x - 60 ≥ 0 in interval notation?
