QUADRATIC EQUATION

Quadratic expression is any algebraic statement that has its highest power of the unknown as 2.

Example    x  12,  4

EQUATION is any algebraic statement that is divided into two parts by an equality sign (=).    Example,    .

METHOD OF SOLVING QUADRATIC EQUATION

  • Factorization method
  •  Completing the square method

               FACTORIZATION METHOD

Factorize the following expression:

  • 6    18a     (ii)  + 36 (iii) = 0

SOLUTION

QUADRATIC   EXPRESSION

(i) 6 18a =   6a (a  3) i.e. taking out the highest common factors.

(ii) .     Product of +36  and sum of       8e x 3e.   Sum   ) 

+36 =[

e[e 8] 3[e  = [e ][e 8]

QUADRATIC EQUATION

(iii)  +2x +1 = 0.  i.e. x1= and 1x 1= 1

+ x +x + 1 = 0  ( +x)+(X+1)

X(x +1) + 1(X+ 1) = 0   (X+1)(X+1) =0

Either (X+1) = 0 or (X+1) = 0

X+1=0  X= 1 twice

COMPLETING THE SQUARE METHOD

4Y + 4 = 0

SOLUTION

4Y =  4  (Re-arrange the equation)

   (Divide through by coefficient of )

4Y+ (  = . Half Y, square it and add it to both sides.

 =

(Y  = 0  Y 2 =

Y =  0 +2  Y = +2 or 2

OR using method of difference of two squares

   (Y 2)(Y+2) = 0

Y  2 = 0 or Y + 2 = 0

Y = 2 or Y =  2.

ASSESSMENT: Solve the following questions:

Using factor method, solve the following quadratic equation:

  •    10p  24 = 0.  (b) 3   + 2k  1 =0.  (c) 10  = 41m +45.
  • Using completing the square method solve:

(a)  + 2d  2 = 0.  (b) 2  10x +7 = 0

WEEK 3

GENERAL FORM OF QUADRATIC EQUATION

ax2 + bx + C = 0, is the general form of quadratic equation. Where a is the coefficient of x2, b is the coefficient of X and C is the constant value of the equation.

Deriving the quadratic formula  from the general equation. The following steps must be followed:

Step 1.  Re-arrange the equation

a  + bX =  c

Step 2.  divide through by the coefficient of

       +

Step 3.  half X , square it and add it to both sides. i.e.

 = .

 +  =  i.e.

(X +  =  or

GRAPHICAL SOLUTION TO QUADRATIC EQUATION

GRAPH is a line or diagrammatical representation of information of a given data or distributions.

  • Draw the graph of y = + 2x  3 for values of x from 2 to 4.  using the scale of 2cm to 1 unit on x-axis and 1 cm to 1 unit  on y-axis.
  •  Use your graph to solve the equation +2x 3=0.
  • Find the least (minimum) value of y and the corresponding value of x.

SOLUTION

IDEA  OF SET

SET is defined as the collection of  well-defined objects , information,  items under consideration. Example : set of spanners, television set , Mathematical set, set of ages of students, etc..

UNIVERSAL SET: This is the mother set of all sets or is the set that contains the entire element under consideration or is the set from which other sets are form. 

FINITE SET is a set with definite elements or elements that can be listed i.e.  1 to 10.

INFINITE SET is a set that the elements cannot be listed i.e. all natural numbers.

EMPTY SET is a set that contain no single element or has nothing inside as element. { }.

SUBSET OF SET is a set that has all its elements contained in another set.

SET NOTATION is the symbolic representation of  a particular set

INTERSECTION OF SET  is the common elements between two or more sets.

UNION OF SET is the collection of all the elements between two or more sets without repetition.

CARDINALITY OF SET is the number of elements in a given set.

EXAMPLE

Given  that   = { -4,-3, -2, -1, 0, 1, 2, 3, 4} is a universal set with subsets

 A = { -2, 0, 3}, B = { -4, -2, 2, 3} , C = { -4 , 0, -2} and  D = {1,2,3}

  find : (i)  A ∩ B   (ii) Bᴜ C    (iii) n(B)  (iv) C D

Union of set = ᴜ  Empty set = { }, null or Ø

Cardinality of set A = n(A)

universal set = E or μ

Intersection of set = ∩

SOLUTION

  • A B ={-2,0,3} {-4,-2,2,3} = {-2,3}
  • BᴜC = {-4,-2,2,3}ᴜ{-4,0,-2} = {-4,-2,0,2,3}
  •  n(B) = n{-4,-2,2,3} = 4
  •  C D = {-4,0, -2} {1,2,3}  = {  } or

ASSESSMENT: Find the solution set of the following questions. New Concept Mathematics for SS1 Exercise 8.9 D page 48.

WEEK 6

COMPLEMENT,  DISJOINT, NULL AND VENN DIAGRAM OF SET

COMPLEMENT OF SET  is the element in  the universal set that is not in the given set. It is denoted with  or .

DISJOINT  SET:   given two non empty set  A and B, if there exist no  common element between  the two set A and B,  the outcome of both set is called disjoint set.

NULL SET is a set that has no element in it. It is denote with NULL or 

VENN DIAGRAM  is the use of diagram  to represent set information.

COMPLEMENT OF SET

Example

Let = {1,2,3,…8,9},   A = { 1,2,3,4},   B = {2,4,6,8}

C = {3,4,5,6}. Find:

  •   (ii)  (iii) C

SOLUTION

(i)  = {5,6,7,8,9}

(ii) A C= {1,2,3,4}} {3,4,5,6}  = {3,4}

(  C ={1,2,5,6,7,8,9}

(Iii) B’ = {1,3,5,7,9,}

C n B’ = {3,4,5,6}n{1,3,5,7,9} = {3,5}.

DISJOINT SET

If  = {1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8} and A ={1,3,5,7}, B = {2,4,6,}. Find A n B?

SOLUTION                                 

                                    AnB = { } or

TWO SET RELATIONSHIP

In a certain Local Government Headquarters, there are 70 labourers, 45 of them are permanent staff. If 36 of them  are paid  overtime weekly including all the daily staff, how many permanent staffs are paid overtime weekly.

1,3,5,7
2,4,6

SOLUTION

N( ) = 70,   Let  x = those paid weekly.  Permanent staff (P.S) = 45 and Daily and weekly Staff = 3

μ = 70

70 = 45-x+x+36-x

 70 = 81-x

70 -81 = -x 

 -11 = -x 

i.e. x = 11

Therefore, the number that are paid overtime weekly is 11 labourers.

 
x  

THREE SET RELATIONSHIP

In a group of 120 students, 72 play football, 65 play table tennis and 53 play hockey, if 35 of the students play both football and table tennis , 30 play both football and hockey, 21 play both table tennis and hockey and each of the students  play at least one of the three  games.

  • Draw a Venn diagram to illustrate this information.
  •  how many of them play:   (i)  all the three games? (ii) exactly two or three games? (iii) exactly one of the three games? (iv)  football only.

SOLUTION

n ) =120 ,  n(F.B) = 72, n(T.T.) = 65 ,n(H.) = 53, n(F.B.& H) = 30, n(F.B. & T.T.) = 35, n(T.T. & H) = 21, n(three games) = x
