MULTIPLE CHOICE (Answer key)

1. C
Quadratic Equation It is a polynomial equation of degree two that can be written in the
form ax 2  bx  c  0 , where and are real numbers and ≠ 0.

2. A

I and II, x 2  7 x  18  0 by factoring ( x  9)( x  2)  0 then x = -9 and x = 2 or

direct substitution let x = -9 (9) 2  7(9)  18  0 18-18 = 0 true; let x = 2

(2) 2  7(2)  18  0 18-18 = 0 true.

3. D
s 2  5s  4  0 is the quadratic equation show that follow the ax 2  bx  c  0
4. C
