A quadratic equation has at most two roots only Exercises 1. Determine which of the values of the variable x given are roots of the respective quadratic equation. (a) x x = 0 ; x = - 1, 1, (b) x + 7x + 3 = 0 ; x = - 3, - 1, 1, 3. Determine by inspection which of the values of x are roots of the following quadratic equations.

4 . SOLVING QUADRATIC EQUATION.1 Solving Quadratic Equations A. By Factorization If a quadratic equation can be factorized into a product of two factors such that (x p)(x q) = 0, Hence x p = 0 or x q = 0 x = p or x = q p and q are the roots of the equation. Notes 1. If p q the equation have two different roots. If p = q the equation have two equal roots (one root only) 3. The equation must be written in general form ax + bx + c = 0 before factorization. Activity Solve the following quadratic equations by factorization. 1. x 7x 8 = 0. x x + = 0 ( x 8 ) ( x + 1 ) = 0 x 8 = 0 or x + 1 = 0 x = 8 or x = x 8x = 0. x 9 = x + 13x 5 = 0 6. (3x + 1)(x - 1) = x x 5 x 8. (x + 1)(x 5) = 16 x x 5 = 16 x x 1 = 0 ( x 7 ) ( x 3 ) = 0 x = 7 or x = 3

5 t t t 10. (p + 1)(p + 1) = 0 Exercise 1 Solve the following quadratic equation by factorisation. 1. x 5x 6 = 0 [6,-1] 9. x 9x + 0 = 0 [5,]. m + 5m = 0 [-8,3] 10. x 13x + 3 = 0 [, 3 1 ] 1 7, ] 3 3. y + 10y + = 0 [-6,-] 11. x 3 = 5x [, 3. x + 3x 5 = 0 [1, ] 1. 6x 11x = 7 [ x 6x 7 = 0 [ 7 ] 13. (x 3) = 9 [ 5,-], 8 6. a + a = 0 [0.-] 1. (3m + 1)(m 1) = 7 [ n = 0 [ ] x + = 13x [, 3 1 3, ] 3 1 ], 5 8. (x + 1)(x + 3 ) = 0 [, 3] 16. x(x + ) = 1 [ -7,3] B. By Completing the Square Notes 1. The expression x x + 1 can be written in the form (x 1) This is called perfect square. Example Solve each of the following quadratic equation (a) (x + 1) = 9 (b) x = 9 x + 1 = 3 x + 1 = 3, x + 1 = -3 x =, x = - (c) (x + ) = 36

6 . From the example, note that, if the algebraic expression on the LHS of the quadratic equation are perfect squares, the roots can be easily obtained by finding the square roots. 3. To make any quadratic expression x + hx into a perfect square, we add the term h ( ) to the expression. And this will make x hx x h hx h x. To solve the equation by using completing the square method for quadratic equation ax + hx + k = 0, follow this steps ; Step 1 : Rewrite the equation in the form ax + hx = - k Step : If the coefficient of x is 1, reduce the coefficient to 1 (by dividing). Step 3 : Add ( h ) to both sides of the equation. Step : Write the expression on the LHS as perfect square. Step 5 : Solve the equation Examples 1. x + 6x 9 = 0. x 5x 8 = 0 x + 6x = 9 x x + = 9 + ( x + 3 ) = 18 x + 3 = 18 x + 3 =.3 x =.3 3, x = x = 1.3, x = -7.3 Exercise Solve the following equations by completing the square.

7 C. By Using the quadratic formula The quadratic equation ax + bx + c can be solved by using the quadratic formula x = b b ac a, where a 0 Example x 7x 3 = 0 a =, b = -7, c = -3 ( 7) x x ( 7) () ()( 3) x = 3.886, Exercise 3 Use the quadratic formula to find the solutions of the following equations.
