Quadratic formula We can also use thequadratic formula: We get two answersx+andx−(one is for the "+" case, and the other is for the "−" case in the "±") that gets us this factoring: a(x − x+)(x − x−)
Quadratic Formula: x =[(−b± √(b2−4ac))] / 2a Example: For x2−5x+6 Roots: x=2 and x=3 Factored Form: (x−2)(x−3) 5. Factoring by Grouping Description: Group terms with common factors and factor each group separately before combining them. ...

Factoring quadratic expressions is easy with the four methods covered in this lesson. Learn how to use each one and practice with some factoring...
What is the factored form of the quadratic formula x2+ x – 20? Solution Step-by-step ProcessExplanation x2+ x – 20Observe the given polynomial. (x + __)(x – __)The leading term is x2, which means we can easily write its factor as xx. More so, since the last term is nega...
There are several methods for solving quadratic equations. These methods include factoring, completing the square, and using the quadratic formula. This lesson will explain how to solve quadratic equations by the method of factoring. Here are the sections within this lesson page: The Multiplication...
Notice how our first step is to set the equation equal to 0 by subtracting five from both sides. Great job! Now you can move on to solving quadratic equations using thequadratic formula. Comments We would love to hear what you have to say about this page!
This module is from Elementary Algebra by Denny Burzynski and Wade Ellis, Jr. Methods of solving quadratic equations as well as the logic underlying each method are discussed. Factoring, extraction of roots, completing the square, and the quadratic formula are carefully developed. The zero-factor...
Since this equation is factorable it can be solved by simply factoring. (x – 2)(x + 5) = 0 The quadratic formula method of solving quadratic equations will be reviewed as a possible alternative method of solving non-factorable quadratic equations. The ...
