Notes: Solving Quadratics by Graphing
By now you are a pro at graphing parabolas from quadratic functions such as
, but what if we wanted to solve an
equation such as
for x?
We can use our skills at graphing parabolas to figure out what x or x’s would equal
to satisfy the equation.
Now, our quadratic is equal to 0, so if we graphed it, where would we find our
solution(s)?
Quadratic equations can have
