Question
solving quadratic equations
example 2
solve: \\(x^2 = 144\\)
solution
value: 3
match the items.
a. \\(\pm 12\\)
b. 144
c. positive
- \\(c = ?\\)
- \\(\sqrt{144}\\)
- \\(c\\) is a ______ integer.
since \\(c > 0\\), the given quadratic equation has two solutions.
\\(x^2 = 144\\)
\\(x = \pm 12\\)
thus, \\(x = 12\\) or \\(x = -12\\).
example 3
solve: \\(x^2 = -3\\)
Identify the value of c
$$
c = 144
$$
Evaluate the square root of c
$$
\sqrt{144} = 12
$$
Determine the classification of c
$$
c = 144 \implies \text{positive}
$$
