In this lesson, you will consider how to rewrite expressions in standard form where the leading coefficient is not 1 and the expression is not a difference of two squares.
When you finish this lesson, you will be able to:
- Use the factored form of a quadratic expression or a graph of a quadratic function to answer questions about a situation.
- Write equivalent expressions in factored form when given quadratic expressions of the form and is not 1.
Here are the activities that will help you reach those goals:
