MODIFIED TRUE OR FALSE (10 pts)
Direction: Write TRUE if the statement is correct but if it is FALSE, change the
underlined word or phrase to make the whole statement true.
______________1. An equation of the form 𝑎𝑥 2 + 𝑏𝑥 + 𝑐 = 0, where a, b, and c are real
numbers and a≠ 0 is called quadratic expression.
______________2. The roots of 𝑏 4 − 7𝑏 2 + 12 = 0 are 𝑏 = ±√3 and 𝑏 = ±2.
3 9
______________3. The trinomial 𝑥 2 + 7 𝑥 + is a perfect square trinomial.
49
______________4. In quadratic inequalities, if the boundaries are indicated with open
circles, then they are included in the set.
______________5. The radicand in the quadratic formula is √𝑏 2 − 4𝑎𝑐.
______________6. If the discriminant is less than 0, then the quadratic equation has
no real number solutions.
______________7. An inequality involving a quadratic polynomial is called a quadratic
inequality.
______________8. To complete the square in 4𝑥 2 + 6𝑥 = 8, add 8 on the both sides of
the equation.
______________9. 𝑥(3𝑥 2 − 2𝑥 + 1) = 0 is an example of quadratic equation.
______________10. The sum of roots is the additive inverse of the quotient of b and a.
______________11. In (3𝑥 + 1)2 = 4(𝑥 − 1)2 , 𝑎 = 5, 𝑏 = 14, 𝑎𝑛𝑑 𝑐 = 3.
______________12. In quadratic inequalities the number line is divided into three regions
and the two numbers that divide it are called the boundaries.
