The Quadratic Formula
The Quadratic Formula is another way to find the roots of a quadratic
equation or the zeros of a quadratic function.
Find the zeros of f x x 2 6x 11.
Step 1 Set f x 0.
x 2 6x 11 0
Step 2 Write the Quadratic Formula.
b 2 4ac
_______________

The Quadratic Formula (continued)
The discriminant of ax 2 bx c 0 a 0 is b 2 4ac.
Use the discriminant to determine the number of roots of a quadratic equation. A quadratic
equation can have 2 real solutions, 1 real solution, or 2 complex solutions.
Find the type and number of solutions.
