10.6 Day 3 - Quadratic Formula and Discriminant Homework
Quadratic Formula Practice: Write out the Quadratic Formula in the box 
For 1 - 6:
1) Find the discriminant to figure out the number of solutions and if you can factor the quadratic
2) If the discriminant is a perfect square, factor the quadratic
3) If it is not a perfect square, use the quadratic formula to find the solution(s) of x.

Discriminant Practice:
Write out the discriminant in the box
For 11 - 16, find the value of the discriminant and use the discriminant to tell if there are two solutions, 1 solution,
or no solutions. Then, explain if you can factor the quadratic based on the value of the discriminant.
