Zero Product Property and Factoring

Unit 9 Quadratics

Agenda (3/7/22):

Interactive Notes on Zero Product Property and Factoring
Homework: 2 Khan Academy assignments on solving quadratics by factoring. Work not required.

Objectives (SWBAT):

Solve quadratic equations using the zero product property
Factor quadratic equations using one of the methods from unit 8

What is a Quadratic Equation?

A quadratic equation is an equation in which the highest power of the variable is a square.
Highest Power = exponent
Square = degree of 2

Multiple Select

Which of the equations below are quadratic?

Select all that apply.

$0=3x^2+4x+3$

$7=\frac{1}{2}x+5$

$0=-10x^{2\ }$

$5=x^2+x^3$

Multiple Choice

Use the zero product property to find the solutions for the quadratic equation shown below.

$\left(5x-1\right)\left(x+2\right)=0$

$x=-2,\ \frac{1}{5}$

$x=2,\ \frac{1}{5}$

$x=2,\ 5$

$x=-2,\ 5$

Multiple Choice

Use the zero product property to find the solutions for the quadratic equation shown below.

$\left(x+4\right)\left(2-x\right)=0$

$x=-4,\ 2$

$x=-4,\ -2$

$x=4,\ 2$

$x=4,\ -2$

Factoring to Solve Quadratic Equations

Zero Product Property can only be used if a Quadratic Equation is already factored.
In general, you will need to factor a Quadratic Equation using one of the methods from the last unit.
Once you factor, use the zero product property to find the solutions to the Quadratic Equation.

Multiple Choice

What is the factored form of

$x^2+2x-24=0$ ?

$\left(x-6\right)\left(x+4\right)=0$

$\left(x-3\right)\left(x+8\right)=0$

$\left(x+6\right)\left(x-4\right)=0$

$\left(x+2\right)\left(x-12\right)=0$

Multiple Choice

The factored form of

$x^2+2x-24=0$ is $\left(x-4\right)\left(x+6\right)=0$ . What are the solutions? Use the Zero Product Property.

$x=-4,\ -6$

$x=4,\ 6$

$x=-4,\ 6$

$x=4,\ -6$

Multiple Choice

What is the factored form of $2x^2-3x-2=0$ ?

$\left(2x-2\right)\left(x+1\right)=0$

$\left(2x+1\right)\left(x-2\right)=0$

$\left(2x+2\right)\left(x-1\right)=0$

$\left(2x-1\right)\left(x+2\right)=0$

Multiple Choice

The factored form of $2x^2-3x-2=0$ is $\left(2x+1\right)\left(x-2\right)=0$ . What are the solutions?

$x=-3,\ -2$

$x=2,\ -3$

$x=-2,\ \frac{1}{2}$

$x=-\frac{1}{2},\ 2$
