Example 1: 5x2 + 3x + 1 = 0 is a quadratic equation in standard form with a = 5, b = 3 and c = 1

Example 2: 4x2 -7 = 0 is a quadratic equation in standard form with a = 4, b = 0 an


Example 3. 5x(2x + 4) = 3 is a quadratic equation but not written in the standard form.
To write the equation in standard form, expand the product and make one side of the
equation zero as shown below:
5x(2x + 4) = 3 → 10x2 + 20x = 3
10x2 + 20x – 3 = 3 - 3
10x2 + 20x – 3 = 0

Then the equation 10x2 + 20x – 3 = 0 is in standard form, where a = 10, b = 20 and c = - 3.

Solving Quadratic Equations by Factoring:


You may visit the link https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MRhjnznqU2Q
and https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hhxnUm_hDGw

A. Factoring difference of two squares:


Equations in the form of x2 = c can be written in the form of x2 – c = 0.
We treat the left side of the equation as difference of two squares as in n2 – m2
where the factors are the sum and the difference of the square roots of the first and the
second terms, (n + m)(n – m).
Example : Give the roots of the quadratic equation x2 – 36 = 0.
Using the concept n2 – m2 = (n + m)(n – m) then the given problem will be written as (x + 6)(x – 6)
= 0.
Applying the Zero-Property Products, (x + 6) could be zero, or (x – 6) could be zero.
So we let x + 6 = 0 and x – 6 = 0
x = -6 x=6 , the roots of the quadratic equation are 6 and -6.
Try this: Solve each quadratic equation:
Example : x2 – 49 = 0 1. x2 – 225 = 0 2. x2 = 81 (Hint: Transpose 81 to
Solution: (x + 7)(x – 7) = 0 the left side)
x + 7 = 0, x–7=0
x = -7 x=7
Answer: {-7, 7}
3. 4x2 – 2 = 23 (Hint: Transpose 4. x2 – 15 = 0 (Hint: The 5. 4x2 – 49 = 0 (Hint: The
23 to the left side) answers has radical sign) answers are fractions)

B. Factoring the Greatest Common Monomial Factor


When c is zero the quadratic equation, the form will be ax 2 + bx = 0. To solve this
equation, we are not allowed to divide the equation by the common factor x, instead
we will factor using the idea of factoring greatest common monomial factor.
Try this: Solve each quadratic equation:

Example : x2 – 5x = 0 1. x2 – 9x = 0 2. 3x2 – 9x = 0 (Hint: GCF is


Solution: x(x – 5) = 0 3x)
x = 0, x – 5 = 0
x=5
Answer: {0, 5}

Math 9 Learning Activity Sheet Page 8 of 33


C. Factoring Perfect Square Trinomial
Do we know when a trinomial is a perfect square? The first and third
term are both positive and squares while the middle term is twice the
product of the
square roots of the first and the third term. See the following illustrative examples below:
1. x2 - 6x + 9 is a perfect square, x2 and 9 are both positive and their square
roots are x and 3or -3. The middle term is 6x which is equal to
2(x)(-3), twice the product of the square roots of the first and
the third term.
2. 9x + 12x – 4 is not a perfect square trinomial, the third term is negative.
2

3. 4x2 + 2x + 1 is not a perfect square trinomial because the middle term is not
twice the product of 2x,
(the square root of the first term) and 1 or -1 (the square root of 1)
The factors of a perfect square trinomial are square of the sum (if the middle term is positive) or
the difference (if the middle term is negative) of the square roots of the first and the third terms

Try this: Solve each quadratic equation:


Example: 4x2 - 12x + 9 = 0 1. x2 + 18x + 81 = 0 2. 49x2 – 42x + 9 = 0
Solution: (2x – 3)2 = 0
(2x – 3)(2x – 3) = 0
2x – 3 = 0, 2x – 3 = 0
2x = 3, 2x = 3
3 3
𝑥=2 𝑥=2

3 3
Answer: {2 , 2}

D. Factoring General Trinomial

In ax2 + bx + c, if a = 1, then the factors will be (x + n)(x + m)


where the product of n and m is c while the sum of n and m is b.
Example: x + 5x + 6 = (x + 2)(x + 3) or (x + 3 )(x + 2) where 2 times 3 is 6 while 2 + 3 is
2

Try this: Solve each quadratic equation:


Example: x2 - 6x + 8= 0 1. x2 – 12x + 32 = 0 2. x2 + 2x - 15 = 0 (Hint: Apply
Solution: (x – 4)(x – 2) = 0 rules in adding integers with
x – 4 = 0, x – 2 =0 different signs)
x = 4, x=2
Answer: { 2, 4}

B. Completing a perfect square trinomial:

In solving Quadratic Equations by completing a square method requires skills in


forming perfect square trinomials.

Example : Complete the square x2 – 6x


Math 9 Learning Activity Sheet Page 11 of 33
𝑏 2
To complete the square, we have identified that our b is -6, using the expressionቀ2ቁ

−6 2
the expression will be ቀ 2 ቁ which when simplified will be (-3)2 which is 9. So, the

complete quadratic trinomial is x 2 - 6x + 9 where the factored form is (x – 3)2. Take


note of the pattern, (n + m)2 = n2 + 2nm + m2 thus working backward, n2 +2nm +
m2 = (n + m)2.

Try this: Complete the square and write in factored form:


Example : x2 – 9x 1. x2 + 10x 2. x2 – 5x

B. Solving Quadratic Equation by Completing the Square, a=1

Quadratic equations expressed in general form, ax 2 + bx + c = 0 where the trinomial


(the left side of the equation) is not factorable can be solved using completing the
square. The quadratic equation, x2 + 6x + 3 = 0 cannot be solved using factoring
since the left side is not factorable. We cannot find factors of 3 that when added will
give the sum of 6. We solve this equation by transposing c to the other side of the
equation leaving the left side in the form of ax 2 + bx and using our skill in completing
the square, we can solve the equation. Study the illustration below.
Example: Solve x2 + 6x + 3 = 0
x2 + 6x = -3 → We transpose c to the right side of the
equation
x2 + 6x + 9 = -3 + 9 → We complete the square by adding 9 to the
left side at the same time we apply addition
property of equality
(x + 3)2 = 6 → We factor the left side and simplify the right
side
x + 3 = ± √6 → We apply Square Root Principle

x = -3 ± √6 →We transpose 3 to the right side of the


equation
Answer: { -3 - √6, -3 + √6 }

C. Completing the square if the leading coefficient is not equal to one (1)

When the leading coefficient is not 1, then we need first to divide both sides of
the equation by the leading coefficient and simplify then, we can proceed following the
step we have done above.

4x2 - 8x = 1 - Note that the constant term is already at the right side
of the equation

LEARNING ACTIVITIES:
It is said that the degree of the equation tells the number of
roots or solution. Since we are dealing with equation in degree 2, it is
understood that the quadratic equation has two possible roots or
solution. Since some solution involves imaginary numbers, there is a
need to review about complex numbers.

An imaginary number denoted by i is equal toξ−1. An expression ξ−4 can be expressed as


√(−1)(−4),
Using the Product Rule for Radicals, √(−1)(−4) = ξ−1 • ξ−4.
ξ−1 is equal to i , while ξ4 is equal to ± 2, thus ξ−4 = ± 2 i (we write the number before the
letter)

ξ−9 = ± 3i , ξ−3 = ± iξ3 (we write the letter before the radical)

Find the roots of the following:


1. x2 = -9 2. x2 + 3 = 0
Solution: ξ𝑥 2 = ξ−9 Solution: x2 = - 3

x = ± 3i ξ𝑥 2 = ξ−3
Answer: { 3i , -3i} x = ± iξ3

Answer: {+ iξ3, - iξ3 }

In the quadratic formula, the radicand b2 -4ac is called the discriminant. By simplifying
the discriminant, we can tell the nature of the roots of the equation. If:
1. b2 -4ac = 0, then the roots are equal, thus there is one real number and is rational root
2. b2 -4ac > 0 and is a perfect square, thus there are two unequal real numbers and are
rational

3. b2 -4ac > 0 and not a perfect square, thus there are two unequal real numbers and
are irrational
4. b2 -4ac < 0, then the roots are imaginary, thus no real number root.

Use the discriminant to describe the characteristic of the roots of the following:

Example: x2 + 5x - 3 = 0 1. 4x2 – 8x + 4 = 0 2. x2 + 3x - 4 = 0
Solution: a = 1, b = 5, c = - 3
b2 - 4ac = (5)2 – 4(1)(-3)
= 25 + 12
= 37
37 > 0 and is not a square
Answer: The equation has two
unequal real roots, and the
roots are irrational.

For what value or values c should have in the equation 2x2 + 5x + c = 0 so that:

a) the equation will have one rational b) the equation will have imaginary
number solution roots
Solution: a = 2, b = 5, c = c Solution: a = 2, b = 5, c = c
b2 – 4ac = (5)2 – 4(2)(c) = 0 b2 – 4ac = (5)2 – 4(2)(c) < 0
25 – 8c = 0 25 – 8c < 0

Your knowledge on how to solve quadratic equations using any method is your
weapon to answer any word problem involving quadratic equation. You also need to
recall formulas like:
1. P = 2l + 2w Perimeter of a rectangle
2. A = l w or bh Area of a rectangle

Example: Geometric problem

1. The area of a rectangular tray is 80 square inches. Its perimeter is 36 inches.


What are thedimensions of a rectangular tray?
Solution: The formula in getting the Area of a rectangle is length times width (lw).
From the given
80
Area, which is 80, and using the formula A = l(w) we will have 80 = l(w) where l = .
𝑤
Representation: (using the first condition) Let w → be the width
80
𝑤
→ be the length

The second condition tells about the perimeter. Using the formula P = 2l + 2w, we will form
80
the equation. Equation: 2( 𝑤 ) + 2(w) = 36

2(80) +2w2 = 36w We multiply the equation by the LCM which is w


2w2 – 36w + 160 = 0 Writing the equation in standard form
w2 – 18w +80 = 0 We simplify the equation by dividing 2 to both sides
(w – 8)(w – 10) = 0 Solving the quadratic equation using factoring
w –8=0 w – 10 = 0 Apply principle of Zero-Product Property
w = 8, w = 10 Solve for w (width)
80 80 80 80
l= 𝑤
= 8
= 10 ; l = 𝑤
= 10 = 8 Solve for l (length)

Answer : Dimensions of the rectangular tray: width is 8 inches, length is 10 inches or


width is 10 inches, length is 8 inches
Check: (using w = 8 in and l = 10 in)

Area of rectangular tray = (l)(w) = 10(8) = 80 square inches


Perimeter of rectangular try = 2l + 2w or 2(l + w) = 2(10 + 8) = 2(18) = 36 inches

Try this. Solve the given problems:

length of the pathway.

Example: Number Problem


1. The sum of two numbers is 11. The sum of their squares is 1 more than 10 times the
largernumber. Find the two numbers.
Solution: If the sum of two numbers is 11, whatever the first number is, the second
number can be obtain by subtracting the first number from the sum which is 11.

Representation: (Using the first sentence) Let x → the larger number


11 – x → the smaller number
Equation: (Using the second sentence) x2 + (11 – x)2 = 10x + 1
x2 + 121 – 22x + x2 = 10x + 1 Expanding the square of the binomial
x + x -22x -10x +121 -1 = 0
2 2 Re-arranging and transposition
2x – 32x + 120 = 0
2 Combining Similar Terms
x – 16x + 60 = 0
2 Simplifying by dividing 2 to both sides
(x – 10)(x – 6) = 0 Solving the equation by factoring
x – 10 = 0, x–6=0 Applying Zero Product Property
x = 10, x=6 Getting the value of x (the larger number)
11 – x = 11 – 10 = 1, 11- x = 11 – 6 = 5 Getting the smaller number

Answer : 10 → the larger number or 6 → the larger number


1→ the smaller number 5 → the smaller number

Check: sum 10+1=11 6 + 5 = 11 Their sum is 11.


? ?

102 + 12 = 10(10) + 1 62 + 52 = 10(6) + 1 The sum of their squares is 1 more

Unlike quadratic equation, quadratic inequality has more than two solutions. Let us
consider, the quadratic inequality, x2 - 4x + 3 ≥ 0. This inequality has infinite solution.
When x is 3, When x is 7, When x is -5, When x is 2,
(3)2 – 4(3) + 3 ≥ 0 (7)2 – 4(7) + 3 ≥ 0 (-5)2 – 4(-5) + 3 ≥ 0 (2)2 – 4(2) + 3 ≥ 0

is true, thus is true, thus is true, thus is false, thus
3 is a solution 7 is a solution -5 is a solution 2 is a not
asolution

Determine if the two given values are solutions of the given quadratic inequality. Draw ☺ ifsolution and
 if not.
1. x2 – 4x – 5 ≤ 0, ( -1, 7) 2. 2x2 – 3x + 6 > 0, (1, 2) 3. x2 + 6x + 17 < 0, ( -1, 5)
4. x2 – 2x -13 > 0, (-1, 3) 5. 2x2 + 6x + 8 ≥ 0, (-3, 5) 6. x2 – 4x – 17 ≤ 0, (-2, -5)

There are different ways/methods on how to solve quadratic inequalities. Let us only
consider problems that are factorable.

Example 1. Solve x2 + x - 6 > 0 and graph the solution set.


Solution: x2 + x - 6 > 0 → Write the inequality such that the right side is
zero.
x2 + x – 6 = 0 → Assume that the inequality is an equation
(x + 3)(x – 2) = 0 → Factor the quadratic trinomial at the left side

x = -3, x = 2 → Solve for x using Zero Product propertyThese


values are called the critical points
At this point we will make a make a number line which will be divided into 3 parts
bounded by the critical points we obtain which are -3 and 2.
A B C

Using factored form and using the original inequality symbol, we have (x+3)(-2)>0.
We are going to test on which part of the number line the values satisfy our
inequality by selecting test point value from each part. Let us put this on a table for
clearer picture.
Part Test Point value (x + 3)(x – 2) > 0 Truth
Value
A we select -5 ( -5 + 3)(-5 – 2) > 0 →(-2)(-7) > 0 → 14 > 0 True

B we select 0 ( 0 + 3)(0 – 2) > 0 → (3)(-2) > 0 → -6 > 0 False


C we select 4 ( 4 + 3)(4 – 2) > 0 → (7)(2) > 0 → 14 > 0 True

Math 9 Learning Activity Sheet Page 31 of 33


The part A (consists of numbers to the left of -3) and C (consists of numbers greater than 2)
satisfy the inequality. Thus, the solution set of the inequality, x2 + x - 6 > 0 is {x/-3 > x > 2 }, (in words,
the value of x is any number less than -3 and any number greater than 2). Writing using the
interval, the solutionwould be (-∞, -3) U (2, ∞). The symbol tells that the solution is any number less
than -3 up to negativeinfinity and any number greater than 2 up to positive infinity. The graph is

Study the graph of the solution of the following inequalities. The problems consisting of the
samequadratic trinomial are expected to have the same critical values. The graphs differ based
on the inequality symbol used.

1. (x + 2)(x – 3) < 0

2. (x + 2)(x – 3) ≤ 0

3. (x + 2)(x – 3) > 0

4. (x + 2)(x – 3) ≥ 0

Solve each inequality and graph the solution set on the number line.

1. x2 + 5x + 6 > 0

2. x2 + 3x ≤ 0

3. x2 – 6x – 16 ≥ 0

4. x2 +x -20 ≤ 0
