Quadratic Formula and the Discriminant

1.) 13.7 - #4-6 ALL and #7-10 last two (ie C and D if the problem has A-D)

2.) 13.8 - READ Pages 647 and 648 and do #4-10 - last three

3.) Memorize the Quadratic Formula

Option 1: you are standing in line to see a movie. Five more people are ahead of you in line than are behind you. Four times as many people are in line as the number of people who are behind you. How many people are ahead of you in line?





Option 2: What is the mean (average) of the first 300 terms in the following sequence:

1, -2, 3, -4, 5, -6, 7, …





Option 3: Using all the digits 0 through 9 once and only once, create multiples of 4 that will sum to the smallest number possible. Example: 1472 + 956 + 308 = 2736 (This sum is not the smallest number that is possible).

Solving by completing the square

Finish all lessons until 13.6

Remember to solve quadratics, there are 5 methods:

1.) Graphing
2.) Square Roots
3.) Factoring
4.) Completing the square
