 Answer the following questions

• How are quadratic equation different from linear?

• how do you write quadratic equations in standard form? give at least 3
examples
• the following are the values of a, b, c that Liza and Lina go when they
expressed 5 – 3x = 2x2 in standard form.
Liza: a = 2; b = 3; c = -5
Lina: a = -2; b = -3; c = 5
Who do you think got the correct values of a, b, and c? Tell me your standard.
-2x2 – 3x + 5 = 0 or 2x2 + 3x - 5
 Linear Equation
• Is an equation that has a variable in a degree of
one

Example: 4x + 1 = 0
Standard form of linear equation in one variable:
ax + b = 0, where a and b are
constants/real numbers and x is the variable.
Often, the equation is in a more complex form.
The solution of the equation is found by
operating on both sides of the equation to get it
into the form similar to x = −b/a.
 Quadratic Equation
Is an equation which has variable in degree of two

Examples:
2x2 + x – 5 = 0
2m2 – 3m = 5
25 = n – n2
c2 = c + 1
Standard form of quadratic equation:
ax2 + bx + c = o where a, b, and c are real numbers
