1) Solve by using the perfect squares method. x2 + 8x + 16 = 0

2) Solve. x2 – 5x – 6 = 0

3) What value should be added to the expression to create a perfect square? x2 – 20x

4) Solve. x2 + 8x – 8 = 0

5) Solve: 2x2 + 12x = 0

6) Solve each problem by using the quadratic formula. Write solutions in simplest radical form. 2x2 – 2x – 1 = 0

7) Calculate the discriminant. x2 – x + 2 = 0

8) Calculate the discriminant and use it to determine how many real-number roots the equation has. 3x2 – 6x + 1 = 0

9) Without drawing the graph of the equation, determine how many points the parabola has in common with the x-axis and whether its vertex lies above, on, or below the x-axis. y = 2x2 + x – 3


10) Without drawing the graph of the equation, determine how many points the parabola has in common with the x-axis and whether its vertex lies above, on, or below the x-axis. y = x2 – 12x + 12
