Quadratic equation In elementary algebra‚ a quadratic equation (from the Latin quadratus for "square") is any equation having the form where x represents an unknown‚ and a‚ b‚ and c represent known numbers such that a is not equal to 0. If a = 0‚ then the equation is linear‚ not quadratic. The numbers a‚ b‚ and c are the coefficients of the equation‚ and may be distinguished by calling them‚ the quadratic coefficient‚ the linear coefficient and the constant or free

2 ✌ Cramer’s Rule Introduction Cramer’s rule is a method for solving linear simultaneous equations. It makes use of determinants and so a knowledge of these is necessary before proceeding. 1. Cramer’s Rule - two equations If we are given a pair of simultaneous equations a1 x + b1 y = d1 a2 x + b2 y = d2 then x‚ and y can be found from d1 b1 d2 b2 a1 b1 a2 b2 a1 d1 a2 d2 a1 b 1 a2 b 2 x= y= Example Solve the equations 3x + 4y = −14 −2x − 3y = 11 Solution Using Cramer’s rule

Solving the quadratic equations using the FOIL method makes the equations easier for me to understand. The Foil method‚ multiplying the First‚ Outer‚ Inner and Last numbers‚ breaks down the equation a little further so you understand where some of your numbers are coming from‚ plus it helps me to check my work. Equation (a.) x^2 – 2x – 13 = 0 X^2 – 2x = 13 (step a) 4x^2 – 8x = 52 (step b‚ multiply by 4) 4x^2 – 8x + 4 = 52 + 4 (step c‚ add to both sides the square of original

Solving Exponential and Logarithmic Equations Exponential Equations (variable in exponent position) 1. Isolate the exponential portion ( base exp onent ): Move all non-exponential factors or terms to the other side of the equation. 2. Take ln or log of each side of the equation. • Make sure to use ln if the base is “e”. Then remember that ln e = 1 . • Make sure to use log if the base is 10. • If the base is neither “e” nor “10”‚ use either ln or log‚ your choice.. 3. Bring the power (exponent)

To solve a system of equations by addition or subtraction (or elimination)‚ you must eliminate one of the variables so that you could solve for one of the variables. First‚ in this equation‚ you must look for a way to eliminate a variable (line the equations up vertically and look to see if there are any numbers that are equal to each other). If there is lets say a –2y on the top equation and a –2y on the bottom equation you could subtract them and they would eliminate themselves by equaling zero
