H Conway Abstract This paper is an extended foreword to the paper of Manjul Bhargava in these proceedings which gives a short and elegant proof of the ConwaySchneeberger Fifteen Theorem on the representation of integers by quadratic forms The repr One example is the following Assume the wealth total value is xed as w 0 and there are goods with prices xed as 0 Assume the commodity bundles are restricted to those that satisfy Somethings we then want to maximize another quantify such as utili Page 3. General equation of a quadratic:. Quadratic Formula:. Notice where the letters come from for the formula. We use the quadratic formula when something can not be factored. However, it also works for factorable quadratic equations as well.. Section 3.4 beginning on page 122. The Big Ideas. The . quadratic formula . allows us to . solve any quadratic equation . once it is written in standard form. The . discriminant. . is a part of the quadratic formula that tells us . Recall in days past when you were given an equation which looked like122++yx and you were asked to sketch the set of points which satisfy thisequation. It was necessary to complete the square so that A journey into different representations. Waterslide. Where’s the maths?. “. solving a problem simply means representing it so as to . make the . solution transparent.”. Herbert . Simon. Father of problem solving research.

Standard Form of a Quadratic Function. A quadratic function is a function that can be written in the form . , . where a, b, and c are real numbers and a. 0. This form is called standard form of a. Richardson 423. Math 2. Quadratics: What’s the big deal?. In this chapter of Math 2 we will be covering Quadratics. In the previous lesson we learned to quantify groups of terms, exponents, and multiple variable problems.. Vocabulary. Discriminant - tells you how many solutions and what type you will have.. If the . discriminant is. . positive . – 2 real solutions. . negative . – 2 imaginary solutions. . zero . – 1 real solution. Recall, we have used the quadratic formula previously. Gives the location of the roots (x-intercepts) of the graph of a parabola. Function must be in standard form; f(x) = ax. 2. + . bx. + c. Example. Find the roots for the function f(x) = 2x. . for the given values:.  . 3. Sketch . the graph for each quadratic. No solutions One solution Two solutions. Using the Discriminant. I can . use the discriminant to determine how many solutions a quadratic equation will have.. Solve each system of equations.. a = . 0, . b. = –5. . 1. . 2. . 3. . 2. a. – 6. b. = 30. 3. a. . b. = –5. 2. a. – 5. b. = 16. 4. a. – 2. b. = 8. a. . b. = 6. 9a 3b = 24.
