Ecuaciones Cuadraticas

Introduction to ecuaciones cuadraticas

Any equation in algebra that can be rewritten in standard form as follows is known as a quadratic equation (from the Latin quadratus, which means "square").

If x represents an unknown and a, b, and c represent known numbers, where an is less than zero, and b is more than 0. Due to the absence of an ax2 term, the equation is linear rather than quadratic when a = 0. The coefficients of the equation are represented by the integers a, b, and c, which may be separated by referring to them as the quadratic coefficient, the linear coefficient, and the constant or free term. The values of x that fulfil the equation are referred to as solutions of the equation, and the values of x that satisfy the expression on the left-hand side are referred to as roots or zeros of the expression on the left-hand side. There are only two possible solutions to a quadratic equation. When there is just one solution, it is referred to as a double root by mathematicians. If all of the coefficients are real numbers, there are either two real solutions or a single real double root, or there are two complex solutions if all of the coefficients are real values. If complex roots are included in the equation, a quadratic equation always has two roots, and a double root is regarded as one of the two roots. A quadratic equation may be factored into an equivalent equation by using the distributive property.

Types of Quadratic Equations

Here are the three forms a quadratic equation should be written in:

1) Standard form: y = ax2

 + bx + c where the a,b, and c are just numbers

2) Factored form: y = (ax + c)(bx + d) again the a,b,c, and d are just numbers

3) Vertex form: y = a(x + b)2

 + c again the a, b, and c are just numbers

Let us start with the advantages of using a standard form. Calculations are expressed in normal mathematical notation with the greatest degree of precision first, followed by lower degrees of precision. The exponent is represented by the degree. In the case of quadratic equations, the degree is two since the exponent with the largest value is two. It is followed by two terms with exponents of one and zero, which are the terms that come after the second term with exponent of two. The advantages of standard form include the ability to readily identify the final behaviour of a function as well as the values of the variables a, b, a, b, and cc. The leading coefficient of a function and the degree of a function are used to determine the final behaviour of a function. A quadratic equation has always had two degrees of freedom. Even when stated in standard form, the leading coefficient of a quadratic equation is always represented by the letter a.

• Factorizar

A quadratic equation is any equation in the form a{x}^{2}+bx+c=0ax

2 +bx+c=0, where x is the unknown, and a, b, and c are known numbers, with a ≠ 0. The unknowns aa, bb and cc are the coefficients of the equation and are called respectively, the quadratic coefficient, the linear coefficient and the constant term.

Note that although aa must not be zero, bb or cc could be. This means, some quadratic equations might be missing the linear coefficient or the constant term, but they are perfectly valid. For example, 2{x}^{2}-64=02x   −64=0 lacks the linear coefficient (b=0), while 3{x}^{2}+8x=03x

2+8x=0 is missing the constant term (c=0).There are many ways to solve quadratic equations, such as through factoring, completing the square, or using the quadratic formula. In the following section, we will demonstrate using the quadratic formula.

There are many advantages to using standard form, including the ability to readily identify the end behaviour of a function as well as the values of a, B1, B2, B3, B4, and C4. In a function, the leading coefficient and the degree of a function are used to determine the final behaviour. A quadratic equation always has two degrees of freedom. When a quadratic equation is stated in standard form, the leading coefficient is always the term aa. It is possible for the parabola to open up if its value is positive, which means it will move both left and right as a function. It is possible for the parabola to open down if its value is negative, which means that the function falls to the left and then to the right

• La fórmula cuadrática

The function f(x) = ax2 + bx + c is a quadratic function.[12] The graph of any quadratic function has the same general shape, which is called a parabola. The location and size of the parabola, and how it opens, depend on the values of a, b, and c. As shown in Figure 1, if a > 0, the parabola has a minimum point and opens upward. If a < 0, the parabola has a maximum point and opens downward. The extreme point of the parabola, whether minimum or maximum, corresponds to its vertex. The x-coordinate of the vertex will be located at {displaystyle scriptstyle x={tfrac {-b}{2a}}}scriptstyle x=tfrac{-b}{2a}, and the y-coordinate of the vertex may be found by substituting this x-value into the function. The y-intercept is located at the point (0, c).

Roots of a Quadratic Equation

The roots of the quadratic equation ax2 + bx + c = 0 are nothing more than the quadratic equation's solutions, and vice versa. This means these are the values of the variable (x) that satisfy the conditions of the equation. The x-coordinates of the x-intercepts of a quadratic function are the x-coordinates of the roots of the function. Due to the fact that the degree of a quadratic equation is two, it can only have a total of two roots. We can discover the roots of quadratic equations by using a variety of techniques.
