Function ? = Recap . Solutions when y = 0 ? = ? = and? = . Factorised form ? = .
What if we zoom in? There isn t a factorised form of the function of this graph
How do we solve quadratic equations if we can t factorise? Show that it isn t possible to factorise this expression: ?2 3? + 4 Hint: Write down all the factors of 4
How do we solve quadratic equations if we can t factorise? So how can we solve the equation ?2 3? + 4 = 0 ? Today s lesson will show you how to use the quadratic formula to solve quadratic equations.
Here is a general quadratic expression: ??2+ ?? + ? The constant value is labelled ? The coefficient of ?2 is labelled ? The coefficient of ? is labelled ?
?2+ 7 ? + 7? 4?2 1 > 0 Discuss: Which of these expressions are quadratic expressions? How do you know? 3?2+ 7?3+ ? ?2+ 7? 9 = 0 3?2+ 7? + 1
What is the value of ? in this expression? 3?2+ 2? + 4 3 2 4
What is the value of ? in this expression? 3?2+ 2? + 4 3 2 4
What is the value of ? in this expression? 3?2 2? + 4 2 -2 3
What is the value of ? in this expression? 4?2 2? + 6 6 -2 4
What is the value of ? in this expression? ?2 2? + 6 -1 0 1
What is the value of ? in this expression? 2? 3?2+ 6 -3 2 3
What is the value of ? in this expression? 2? 3?2 3 -3 2 3
What is the value of ? in this expression? 9 + 2? 3?2 -3 2 3
?2+ 7 ? + 7? 4?2 1 > 0 Which of these expressions are quadratic? 3?2+ 7?3+ ? ?2+ 7? 9 = 0 3?2+ 7? + 1
Solving quadratic equations using the quadratic formula. This is the quadratic formula: ? = ? ?2 4?? 2? It enables us to find the solutions to the equation by using the values of ?, ? and ? from the quadratic equation.
Memory Game You will have 10 seconds to look at the quadratic equation You have to try and recreate as much of it as possible after this time has passed.
The quadratic formula. ? = ? ?2 4?? 2?
Solving quadratic equations using the quadratic formula. On whiteboards find the values of a, b and c for 2? + ? + 5 = 0 ? = 2 ? = 1 ? = 5
Solving quadratic equations using the quadratic formula. On whiteboards find the values of a, b and c for 7? 2? + 8 = 0 ? = 7 ? = -2 ? = 8
Solving quadratic equations using the quadratic formula. On whiteboards find the values of a, b and c for ? + 6? 3 = 0 ? = 1 ? = 6 ? = -3
Can you remember the quadratic formula? Write it on your boards. ? = ? ?2 4?? 2? We will now use this to solve the equations.
Using the quadratic formula Solve: ? + 9? + 4 = 0 ? = 1, ? = 9, ? = 4 Type the formula into your calculator replacing the letters with the values. ? = ? ?2 4?? 2? ? = ? ?2 4 ? ? 2 ?
How to type it into your calculator ? = ? ?2 4 ? ? 2 ? 1. Press the fraction button
How to type it into your calculator ? = ? ?2 4 ? ? 2 ? 1. Press the fraction button 2. Type in the numerator, but type in + , not .
How to type it into your calculator ? = ? ?2 4 ? ? 2 ? 1. Press the fraction button 2. Type in the numerator, but type in + , not . 3. To move to the denominator, click the down arrow. 4. Type in the denominator. 5. Press =
How to type it into your calculator ? = ? ?2 4 ? ? 2 ? Your calculator will give the answer 9 + 65 2 This is in surd form. To write as a decimal press the S D button. ? = 0.4688711259
How to type it into your calculator ? = ? ?2 4 ? ? 2 ? That is one of the solutions. To find the other, press the up arrow, move your cursor and change the + to a - Press = and S D You should get ? = 8.531128874
How to type it into your calculator ? = ? ?2 4 ? ? 2 ? The two solutions are ? = 0.4688711259 ? = 8.531128874 These would be the ?-intercepts for the graph of the function ? = ?2+ 9? + 4
Using the quadratic formula Solve: ? + 4? + 2 = 0 Now type into your calculator to find the two solutions. ? = 1, ? = 4, ? = 2 Type the formula into your calculator replacing the letters with the values. ? = ? ?2 4?? 2? ? = ? ?2 4 ? ? 2 ?
Using the quadratic formula Solve: 5? 7? 8 = 0 When the coefficient of ? is negative, extra care must be taken. Watch carefully as I go through the process on the board.
Using the quadratic formula Now let s look at some of your work.
