1 Foundations of Math 11 Section 7.3 Quadratic Equations Quadratic Equations Quadratic Equation Definition of a Quadratic Equation An equation that can be written in the form ax + bx + c = 0 where a, b and c are real numbers with a 0. The solutions of the quadratic equation f (x) = ax + bx + c = 0 are called zeros of the quadratic function f (x) = ax + bx + c. The points where the graph crosses the x-axis are the real solutions, because f (x) is zero at this point. The x-intercepts are called the real roots of the quadratic function. A quadratic function can cross the x-axis either 0, 1, or times. Real Zeros of a Quadratic Function If f (x) is a quadratic function and c is a real zero of f (x), then the following statements are equivalent: 1. x = c is a zero of the function f (x). x = c is a root of the function f (x) 3. x = c is a solution of the equation f (x) = 0. (x c) is a factor of the quadratic equation f (x) 5. (c, 0) is an x-intercept of the graph of f (x) Example 1 f (x) = x x + 3 f (x) = x x +1 f (x) = x x no zeros (no real roots) one zero (double root or two equal real roots) two zeros (two unequal real roots)

2 3 Chapter 7 Quadratic Functions Foundations of Math 11 We will look at many methods of solving quadratic equations. The first will be with a graphing calculator. Solving Quadratic Equations with Graphing Calculators Example 1 Solve by graphing calculator: x x = 3 Method 1 (by TI-83 Plus calculator) (Find intersection of two graphs.) Graph the equation y = x x and y = 3, and set appropriate window. Y 1 = x x Y = 3 x[ 3, 3] y[ 1, ] (press) nd, CALC, (move cursor down to 5: intersect) ENTER, (move trace cursor close to an intersection, press) ENTER, ENTER, ENTER. Intersect value is displayed at bottom of screen. Repeat for nd intersection point. ( 1, 3) and (1.5, 3) so x = 1 and x = 1.5 Method (by TI-83 Plus calculator) (Find zeros of graph.) First, arrange equation to the form ax + bx + c = 0 x x 3 = 0. Y 1 = x x 3 Graph the equation y = x x 3, and set appropriate window. x[, 3] y[ 5, ] (press) nd, CALC, (move cursor down to : zero) ENTER, (move trace cursor close to left of first zero, press) ENTER, (move cursor to right of first zero) ENTER, ENTER. Repeat for nd intersection point. ( 1, 0) and (1.5, 0) so x = 1 and x = 1.5

3 Foundations of Math 11 Section 7.3 Quadratic Equations 33 Not all equations are in the form ax + bc + c = 0, but the graphing calculator can still solve them. Example Solve by graphing calculator: x x 5 3 x +1 = 30 x x 5 Graph equation y = x x 5 3 x x x 5 and set appropriate window following same steps as Example 1, Method. x = 3 Our next method of solving a quadratic equation is by factoring. We have used this method in past mathematic development. Solving Quadratic Equations by Factoring Any quadratic equation can be written in the standard form of a quadratic ax + bx + c = 0, a 0. If this factors easily, use the zero product theorem to extract the roots. The Zero Product Theorem If a b = 0, then a = 0orb = 0. If the product of two or more numbers is 0, then at least one of the numbers must be 0. e.g., (x )(x + 3) = 0 means x = orx = 3 5x(x + 8)(x 3) = 0 means x = 0orx = 8orx = 3 We will use the zero product rule to solve quadratic equations by factoring. Solving Quadratic Equations by Factoring Step 1: Write the equation in standard form so that the equation equals zero. Step : Factor the quadratic equation, if possible. Step 3: Set each factor which includes a variable equal to zero. Step : Solve the resulting equations. Step 5: Check each solution in the original equation.

Reduce. Simplify. (x 5)(x + 3) = 0 Factor. x 5 = 0orx + 3 = 0 x = 5or x = 3 Put in standard form. Solve. Always check each root in the original rational expression to see if the solution is valid. In the original statement, the equation is undefined for x = 5 or x = 1 (denominator = 0). Hence, reject x = 5 and the solution is x = 3. Check x = 3 x x 5 3 x +1 = 30 x x = 30 ( 3) ( 3) = = = 15 8

14 33 Chapter 7 Quadratic Functions Foundations of Math Solving Quadratic Equations The factor method is the easiest method for solving quadratic equations, but cannot be used in all problems because not all expressions factor with integer coefficients. This section will develop methods of solving quadratic equations that cannot factor. Solving Quadratic Equations by the Square Root Method The square root method for solving quadratic equations is used mainly when b = 0 in ax + bx + c = 0. The x is isolated on the left side of the equation, and then the square root is taken. We will first demonstrate this method by first using an example that factors. x 16 = 0 (x )(x + ) = 0 x = 0orx + = 0 x = orx = or x 16 = 0 x = 16 x =± 16 x =± The procedure on the right leads us to the square root property. Solving a Quadratic Equations of the form ax + c =0 Step 1: Isolate the x on left side of the equation and the constant on the right side. Step : Take the square root of both sides, remembering it is ± when taking the square root of the constant. Step 3: Simplify, if possible. Step : Check the solution in the original equation. Thus, the square root property is defined as follows: The Square Root Property The equation x = n has exactly real solutions. x = n and x = n if n > 0 The solutions are often written x = ±n x = 0if n = 0 x = if n < 0 (e.g., x = has no real solution)

Example Solve x + 7 = 0 x = 7 x = 7 x = Solution is the empty set under the real number system. Example 3 Solve x 7 = 0 x = 7 x = 7 x = ± 7 Solutions are 7 and 7. Solve equations of the form a(x + b) = c. Example Solve (x + ) = 10 (x + ) = 10 x + =± 10 x = ± 10 Solutions are 10 and Example 5 Solve 9(x 1) = 13 (x 1) = 13 9 (x 1) = 1± 13 3 Solutions are and

16 336 Chapter 7 Quadratic Functions Foundations of Math 11 Example 6 Solve (x + 3) +11 = 0 (x + 3) = 11 (x + 3) = 11 x = Solutions is the empty set under the real number system Solving Quadratic Equations with the Quadratic Formula If we take the standard form of the quadratic equation ax + bx + c = 0 and solve for x, we obtain a formula that can be used to obtain the solution x. This formula will work for any quadratic equation, and is used for the quadratic equations that do not factor or when you are not able to see the factors easily. Steps in Deriving the Quadratic Formula ax + bx + c = 0 ax + bx + = c x + b a x + = c a Isolate the variable on the left side of the equation. Divide by a to make the coefficents of x terms equal to 1. x + b a x + b a = c a + b Divide b a a by and square b a = b a. x + b a = b ac a Write as the square of a binomial on the left side; common denominator on the right side. x + b a =± x = b a ± b ac a Take square root. b ac a Isolate square root; simplify radical. x = b ± b ac a Common denominator.

22 3 Chapter 7 Quadratic Functions Foundations of Math Application of Quadratic Functions & Equations The concept of maximum and minimum values of a quadratic function is used to solve many types of problems. Solving for the vertex, and knowing if the vertex is a maximum or minimum value, is the key to solving quadratic formula problems. The next few examples will demonstrate this concept. Example 1 A rectangular pen is to be built along the side of a barn to house chickens. Find the maximum area that can be enclosed with 60 m of fencing if the barn is one side of the enclosure. Let w = width of pen Then 60 w = length of pen w Pen w 60 w A = w(60 w) = 60w w Vertex = b a, c b a = 60 60,0 ( ) ( ) = (15, 50) or w = 60 a = 60 ( ) = 15, A = 60(15) (15 ) = 50 Therefore, area is a maximum at the vertex (15, 50) where w = 15 m and A = 50 m, or l = 60 (15) = 30 m A = l w = = 50 m Example Mary stands on the top of a building and fires a gun upwards. The bullet travels according to the equation h = 16t + 38t + 50, where h is the height of the bullet off the ground in metres at t seconds after it was fired. a) How far is Mary above the ground when she shoots the gun? b) What is the bullet s maximum height above the ground? c) How long does it take for the bullet to reach its greatest height? a) When t = 0, h = 50 m. b) Vertex b a, c b a = 38 38,50 ( 16) ( 16) = (1, 35) or t = b a = 38 ( 16) = 1, h = 16(1) + 38(1) + 50 = 35 The bullet s maximum height is 35 m. c) t = 1, bullet reaches greatest height in 1 seconds.

For each $1 increase in cost of renting, five fewer cars are rented. For what rate should the cars be rented to produce the maximum income, and what is that income? Let R(x) = income from renting cars. If there is no change in rates, then R(x) = = $1 000 in income. Let x = increase in rate (in $) The new cost of renting a car is (0 + x). The number of cars rented is (300 5x). R(x) = (0 + x)(300 5x) = x + 300x 5x = 5x +100x Vertex = b a, c b a = ,1 000 ( 5) ( 5) = (10,1 500) or x-coordinate of vertex is b a = 100 ( 5) = 10, then R(x) = 5x +100x R(10) = 5(10 ) +100(10) = Maximum at (10, 1 500) so maximum income $1 500 occurs when x = 10, so a car should be rented for = $50.00 per day to produce the maximum income of $ Example Find two numbers whose difference is 100 and the sum of whose squares is minimum. Let x = larger number and y = smaller number. Then x y = 100 x = y +100 Sum = s = x + y = ( y +100) + y = y + 00y y = y + 00y y = b a = 00 () = 50 x y = 100 x = 50 Thus, x = 50 and y = 50. The two numbers are 50 and 50.

They both finish at the same time but Ann starts 1 minute before Ray, and Ray travels 1 km/h faster than Ann. At what speed are they travelling? Ann s time minus Ray s time = 1 minute 1 = 60 hour. Remember, distance = speed time so Speed (km/hr) Distance (km) Ann x Time (hrs) x t = d s with d = km. Ann s time minus Ray s time = 1 60 hour.
