transformable to
quadratic equations
1. Solve x (x − 5) = 36
1. Solve x ( x − 5) = 36
x2 - 5x = 36 x2 - 5x -36 = 36 -36
Addition Property of
Equality (APE) x2 - 5x - 36 = 0
x2 - 5x - 36 =0
1. Solve x ( x − 5) = 36
1. Solve x ( x − 5) = 36
f. Equate each factor to zero x – 9= 0 or x+4 =0
2. Solve for ( x + 4 )( x – 3 ) = 8
a. Write the equation ( x + 4 )( x – 3 ) = 8
b. Simplify the left side of the equation (using
FOIL or window method)
x2 + x – 12 = 8
c. Transform to standard form
of quadratic equation x2 + x – 12 - 8 = 0
x2 + x – 20 = 0
