Quadratic Formula
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZBVYahon6EY
Pre-req's for this lesson:

- "plug it in"

- identify coefficients

- simplify radicals

- add/subtract

- memorize a long formula!
Objective: use the quadratic formula to find x!




           x + 7x + 12
              2
x + 7x + 12
             2

STEP 1: identify coefficients:
       a=_____     b=_____       c=_____


STEP 2: plug it into the formula!

         -b ±      b - 4ac
                     2

                   2a
a=1 b=7 c=12

       -b ±    b - 4ac
                2

               2a
Try it on your own! **find x using the Q.F.

             x - 6x + 7
               2
Try it on your own! **find x using the Q.F.

             x - 4x + 6
               2
