First, multiply a withc. We look for two numbers, b, whose product is equal to a-c and whose addition is equal to b Therefore bb, a-¢ and b, +b, Now re-write the equation by splitting the hx term into b,x +b,x = x(b, + b,). This is consistent with our equation because we have defined h, +b, =b. Having split our quadratic equation into a quadratic expression with four terms, we can now factor by grouping. First group the first two terms and factor them, and then do the same with the last two. Finally observe that there is a common factor; take it out again, factoring the expression completely. See examples below. Example 1; 4x° +18x+8=0 We look for two numbers whose product is equal to 4-8 = 32, and whose addition is equal to 18. Observe that 16+2=18and 16 32 Now re-write the equation by splitting the 18x term into 16x +2x The original equation will look like this: 4x” +16x-+2x+8 Ax? + 16x +2048 = (4x? +16x)+(2x+8) = Ax(x +4) +2044) Observe the common term and factor it again. 4x(x+4)+2(0+4) = (4x+2)(x+4) Algebra I Easter Review Example 14x? +13x+3=0 We look for two numbers whose product is equal to 14-3 = 42, and whose addition is equal to 13. Observe that 6+7=13and 6-7=42 Now re-write the equation by splitting the 13x term into 7x + 6x. The equation will look like this: 14x? +7x+6x+3 14x? + 7x +2643 =(14x° + 7x) + (6x +3) Tx(2x-+1)+3(2x +1) Observe the common term and factor it again. Tx(2x +1) +3(2x+1) (7x+3)(2x+1) 16 Algebra I Easter Review 2.10 Quadratic Equations SOLVE the following quadratic equation. 2) By Factoring. i) x*-15x454=0 ii) P+7x+12=0 iii) + 7x ~30=0 iv) x -6=0 vy x*+15x-16 = 0 vi) 11x -26=0 vii) 6x°+ 10x44 = 0 vill) 2x*- 13x-7=0 b) By use of the Quadratic Formula, ) Qw-lx+4=0 i) x= 6-x ii) °-7x+2=0 iy) 1 -5x-2x7=0 vy) 3xt+11x+6=0 vi) 0.3x°+ 0.4" +1,5=0 vi) 20x*417x - 63 = 0 vill) Sx-2x#187 =0 WW Algebra I Easter Review 2.11 Word Problems Solved with Quadratic Equations Solve the following questions by forming a suitable quadratic equation and solving it. 1) The dimensions of a rectangular garden were 3 m by 10 m. When both dimensions were increased by equal amounts, the area of the garden doubled. Find the dimensions of the new garden. 2) A square field had 5 m added to its length and 2 m added to its width. The field then had an area of 130 square metres. Find the length of a side of the original field. 3) The product of two consecutive odd integers is equal to 30 more than the first. Find the numbers. 4) The profit, P, in dollars, gained by selling x computers is modelled by the equation: P= -5x + 1000x + 5000. How many computers must be sold to obtain a profit of $55,000? 18 5.1 Algebraic Fractions b) o e Algebra I Easter Review Simplify the following algebraic fractions (remember to factor first where possible!) 2ix?

When this is the case it is perfectly acceptable to multiply the two expressions together even though this will not necessarily form the smallest common multiple. You should check at the end of the calculation in the final fraction that there are no common factors in the numerator and denominator; if there are, you can always cancel them to give an equivalent but simpler fraction, Example Example 2: atb 2a _ ath) 22a) B_ytl | 3yx3_ aye) 2% 5x2 Ox5 x ay Bye x Dx Say 5a+ 5b 4a _ te 1 10 by Gy eee tobe _ wy Qy+2) 10 a _ at sb 10 : Example 3: xy-) ay+D : WDD G- yD : ay+3 Dyed * “GF ty-D ie teed wr y-D See eee GnG-D Simplify the following algebraic expressions: @ s+ Algebra I Easter Review 5.1 Algebraic Fractions Example 1: Example 2 Sead x+2 Reed 8 2 Example 3: a xed By xed, ay x+1, 8y ty xed 8yix + 1) ayix* 4) Ax+ 1) Baamle 5 = (Stn easy) Bix Xy- Simplify the following algebraic expressions: (@ m+ Sm ‘ian ) PF (Oe BAL @ B+& () Xue Maxed) Ong i us, @ SP RS a Algebra I Easter Review 5.2 Changing the Subject of the Formula (Re-arranging Formulas) ay » ° a 8 2 Make the indicated letter the subject of the formula, T= 3k Xey -1 of Az4r+9 pem-t ke a tk Wl {pl (ml iO tk m ge » C= 2nr P= 21+ Qw b+2 pat Seige bag) c » Reba 2 Ww Ib] U) Ib] Id (kl ° » o » ») lal eset 1 lal ca teay=s-by yh my-n) = n(n-y) — Lyl Wl Algebra I Easter Review 53 Variation Steps to solving variation problems: 1, Find appropriate letters to represent each variable, 2.
