3 ways to solve a quadratic equation Factoring/Magic X Quadratic Formula Completing the square
ALWAYS FIND THE GCF FIRST THEN … DETERMINE A, B, C using
Multiplying Binomials Remember the distribution pattern
Using MAGIC X We do Magic X to split up the “B” term Then find the GCF of the 4 terms! Factor by “Grouping”
Solve by factoring
Factoring by guessing and checking ( __ __ ) ( __ __ ) You MUST multiply and add to get the middle term!!!
Solve by using the quadratic formula = 0
ALWAYS FIND THE GCF FIRST THEN …DETERMINE A, B, C using SUBSTITUTE into formula
Completing the square A needs to be one. The middle term should be an even. Use
Solve by completing the square or QF = 0
