Solving Quadratic Equations by Factoring — Easy Worksheet 2

Grade 9 · MathSheets    Name: ____________________   Date: __________

Solve each equation. Write two solutions like x = -3 or x = 5.

How to solve

Get 0 on one side, then factor the other side. By the zero-product property, if a product is 0 then one of the factors is 0, so set each factor equal to 0 and solve.

Example

(x - 1)(x + 4) = 0

Answer: x = -4 or x = 1

right so far
1. x² + 4x + 4 = 0
2. x² - x - 6 = 0
3. x² + 2x = 0
4. (x - 3)(x + 6) = 0
5. x² - 2x - 24 = 0
6. x² - x - 12 = 0
7. 4x² + 20x = 0
8. (x + 6)(x + 6) = 0
