Thank you, ___________.

F. Lesson Proper - (Students listen attentively)

- I think you are all ready to become a

student who is MATHalino, MATHgaling
and MATHusay. So let us start! - Quadratic equation, Ma’am.

- Again, our lesson for today is all about

Solving Quadratic Equation by
Factoring. So, so far you have learned in
your previous lessons how to solve linear - (Students listen attentively)
equations, which include constant terms –
plain numbers – and terms with the
variables raised to the first power.

- So now class, what do you called an

equation containing a second-degree
polynomial?

- Okay very good!

A quadratic equation is an algebraic
equation of the second degree in x. The
quadratic equation in its standard form is
ax2+ bx + c = 0, where a and b are the
coefficients, x is the variable, and c is the
constant term.

- Finding what to multiply together

to get an expression.

- Okay class, so this morning we’re going

to learn how to solve quadratic equation.
There are different ways to solve quadratic
equation, such as factoring, by extracting
the square roots, by using quadratic formula - Ma’am, 6 and 1.
and by completing the square. But for the
time being, we shall deal only with
quadratic equations that can be factored. - 3 and 2, Ma’am.

- So, class what do you mean by factoring?

Yes, _________.

- Factoring is the process of finding the

factors. Factors are the integers that are
multiplied to produce an original number.

For example, what are the factors of 6? - (Students listen attentively)

Yes, ______.
Okay very good! When we multiply 6 and
1 the answer is 6.
What else? Yes, ________
That’s right! 3 times 2 is also equal to 6.

- In solving quadratic equation by factoring,

we must follow the following steps.

STEPS IN SOLVING QUADRATIC

EQUATIONS BY FACTORING

1. Write the quadratic equation in

standard form.
2. Factor the non-zero side.
3. Equate each factor to zero and solve.
4. Checking.

Let’s have some examples.

Solve,
x2 + 7x = 15

Step 1
x2 + 2x –15 = 0
Step 2
Factor the first term which is x2
(x )(x )

List all the factors of c (-15)

-15 x 1 15 x (-1)
-5 x 3 5 x (-3)

Among all the factors of c (-15),

choose the numbers with the sum resulting
to b (2).
-15 + 1 = -14 15 + (-1) = 14
-5 + 3 = -2 5 + (-3) = 2

Therefore, 5 and -3 are the factors that

will satisfy our equation. Add it to the
factors of our first term.
(x + 5)(x - 3)

Step 3
- Yes, Ma’am!
x+5=0 x–3=0
x = -5 x=3

Step 4
For x = -5 - The equation is already in the
standard form Ma’am.
x2 + 2x –15 = 0
(-5)2 + 2(-5) -15 = 0
25 – 10 – 15 = 0
0=0

For x = 3
- We’re going to factor the left side
x2 + 2x –15 = 0 of the equation Ma’am.
(3)2 + 2(3) -15 = 0
9 + 6 – 15 = 0
0=0
- x times x Ma’am.
Did you understand class?
Okay let’s have another example.
- Student A will answer 32 and 1 or -
Solve : x –12x + 32 = 0
2 32 and -1.

- Student B will answer 8 and 4 or -8

- Class, what have you noticed from the and -4.
given equation?
- No Ma’am. 16 and 2 / -16 and – 2
- Alright, very good observation ______. are also factors of 32.

Since the given is already in its standard

form, we can now proceed to the next step.

- What are we going to do next?

- It’s -8 and -4 Ma’am.
- Very well said, ______. (-8) plus (-4) is equal to -12.

- Let us first factor the first term which is

x2, So what are the factors of x2?

-That is right! How about the factors of c

(32)? Can give you give one? - We will equate each factor to zero
and solve the equation.
- What else?
- (Student will write the answer in
the board.)
- Is that all? (x – 8) = 0 and (x – 4) = 0

(x – 8) = 0 (x – 4) = 0
- Good job class! So we have, x=8 x=4
32 x 1 -32 x -1
8x4 -8 x -4 - We will proceed to checking
16 x 2 -16 x 2 Ma’am.

- From these factors, which one has the sum - (Student will write the answer in
of b (-12)? the board.)

- Very well said, ______. x2 –12x + 32 = 0

Alright so therefore we have, 82 – 12(8) + 32 = 0
(x - 8) and (x - 4) 64 – 96 + 32 = 0
0=0
- Then what will be our next step?
- (Student will write the answer in
the board.)
Can you do that ______?
x2 –12x + 32 = 0
42 – 12(4) + 32 = 0
That’s great, ______! 16 – 48 + 32 = 0
0=0

- Yes, Ma’am!
- And for the last step? - No, Ma’am.

- Very good! Who wants to do the checking

for x = 8? Yes, ________.

- Good job! How about for x = 4?

- (Students listen attentively)
- Is it clear now?
- Do you have any questions?

For the last example, solve:

2x2 – 4x = 30 - No, Ma’am.

Step 1:
2x2 – 4x - 30 = 0

Step 2: - No, Ma’am.

In factoring, we can use trial and error
method to find the factors that will make
the equation correct.
So if we factor the first term which is 2x2,
we have:
(2x )(x ) - Yes, Ma’am.

By trial and error, try all the possible

factors of c (-30) using foil method.

Use 3 and -10

(2x + 3)(x - 10)
2x2 – 20x +3x – 30 = 0
2x2 – 17x – 30 = 0
Is it the same with our original equation? - (Student will write the answer in
the board.)
Let’s try 2 and -15,
(2x + 2)(x - 15)
2x2 – 30x +2x – 30 = 0
2x2 – 28x – 30 = 0
Is it the same with our original equation?

Let’s try 6 and -5,

(2x + 6)(x - 5) - (Student will write the answer in
2x2 – 10x + 6x – 30 = 0 the board.)
2x2 – 4x – 30 = 0
Is it the same with our original equation?

Step 3: - Yes, Ma’am.

(2x + 6) = 0 (x - 5) = 0 - No Ma’am.
2x = -6 x=5
2 x −6
=
2 2
x = -3

Step 4:
for x = (-3)
2x2 – 4x – 30 = 0
2(-3)2 – 4(-3) – 30 = 0
2(9) + 12 – 30 = 0
18 – 18 = 0
0=0

For x = (5)
2x2 – 4x – 30 = 0
2(5)2 – 4(5) – 30 = 0
2(25) – 20 – 30 = 0
50 – 20 – 30 = 0
0=0
- Are we clear now?
- Do you have any question?
G. Application
