What’s New
This module focuses on equations that can be transformed into quadratic equations.
These equations may be presented in different forms. This means that the process of
transforming these equations also differ.
After transforming these equations into quadratic equations, their roots can be
solved using any of the four methods. These methods in solving quadratic equations
are extracting square roots, factoring, completing the square or using quadratic
formula.
But before you proceed in finding the roots of these equations, let us first have an
activity on transforming these equations to quadratic equations.
Activity 3: TRANSFORM
Transform the following equations into quadratic equations. Then answer the
questions that follow.
4. 3x + 5 – x = 4 5. x + 3 – __6__ = 1
2 x 4 x+3
Questions:
1. How were you able to find your answers for items 1, 2 and 3? What mathematical
concepts and principles did you apply to determine the equation?
2. How were you able to find your answers for items 4 and 5? What mathematical
concepts and principles did you apply to determine the equation?
4
What is It
After transforming the equation, use any of the four methods in solving quadratic
equations to determine the roots / solutions to the equation.
Solve the equation by factoring x2 + 4x – 21 = 0
(x + 7)(x – 3) = 0
x + 7 = 0, x – 3 = 0
x = -7, x = 3
To check, substitute -7 and 3 to the equation x(x + 4) = 21.
If x = -7 -7 (-7 + 4) = 21 If x = 3 3 (3 + 4) = 21
-7 ( -3) = 21 3 ( 7) = 21
Therefore, the roots of the equation x(x + 4) = 21 are -7 and 3.
Item 2: (2x + 3)(x + 1) = 10
Apply multiplication of binomials (2x + 3)(x + 1) = 10
2x2 + 2x + 3x + 3 = 10
2x2 + 5x + 3 = 10
Simplify the equation 2x2 + 5x + 3 – 10 = 0
2x2 + 5x – 7 = 0
Solve the equation by factoring. 2x2 + 5x – 7 = 0
(2x + 7)(x – 1) = 0
2x + 7 = 0, x – 1 = 0
x = -7/2, x = 1
To check, substitute -7/2 and 1 to the equation (2x + 3)(x + 1) = 10.
If x = -7/2 [2(-7) + 3] (-7 + 1) = 10
2 2
(-7 + 3)(-7 + 2) = 10
2 2
( - 4 ) ( - 5 ) = 10
2
10 = 10
If x = 1 [2(1) + 3] (1 + 1) = 10
(2 + 3) (2) = 10
5(2) = 10
10 = 10
5
Therefore, the roots of the equation (2x + 3)(x + 1) = 10 are -7/2 and 1.
Item 3: (x + 1)2 + (x – 3)2 = 16
Apply square of binomial (x + 1)2 + (x – 3)2 = 4
x2 + 2x + 1 + x2 – 6x + 9 = 4
2x2 – 4x + 10 = 4
Simplify the equation 2x2 – 4x + 10 – 4 = 0
2x2 – 4x + 6 = 0
Solve the equation by quadratic formula
2x2 – 4x + 6 = 0 a = 2, b = -4, c = 6
x = -(-4) ± √ (-4)2 – 4(2)(6)
2(2)
x = 4 ± √ 16 – 48
4
x = 4 ± √ – 32
4
Simplify the answer x = 4 ± √ (16)(-2)
4
x = 4 ± 4√-2 = 1 ± √-2
4
Check if the obtained values of x make the equation (x + 1) 2 + (x – 3)2 = 16 true. If so,
then the solutions of the equation are x = 1 + √-2 and x = 1 - √-2.
6x + 10x – 2x2 = 8x
2
2 x
Simplify the equation 3x2 + 10 – 2x = 8x
3x2 + 10 – 2x - 8x = 0
3x2 – 10x + 10 = 0
Solve the equation by quadratic formula.
3x2 – 10x + 10 = 0 a = 3, b = -10, c = 10
x = -(-10) ± √ (-10)2 – 4(3)(10)
2(3)
x = 10 ± √ 100 – 120 = 10 ± √ – 20
6 6
Simplify the answer x = 10 ± √ (4)(-5) = 10 ± 2√-5
6 6
x = 5 ± √-5
3
6
Check if the obtained values of x make the equation 3x + 5 – x = 4 true. If so, then
2 x
the solutions of the equation are x = 5 + √-5 and x = 5 - √-5.
3 3
Item 5: x + 3 – __6__ = 1
