Problem Solving Involving Quadratic Equations and Rational Algebraic Equation (Geometric Problems)

Here are the steps to solve these problems: 1) Let x = the first even integer x + 2 = the second even integer 2) Apply the difference formula: (x + 2)^2 - x^2 = 68 3) Simplify and solve the equation to get x = 6, 8 2) Let x = the number 5x + 8 = 48 5x = 40 x = 8

It satisfies the given condition


which is “twice its square is 32”
E. Answer Therefore, the number can be 4
or -4.
Example: 2. Find two consecutive integers such that
the sum of their squares is 113
Process Solutions
A. Representation Let x - be the 1st number
x+1 – be the 2nd number
B. Formulate Equation Condition: the sum of their
squares is 113

C. Solve the equation

=0
Example: 2. Find two consecutive integers such that
the sum of their squares is 113
Process Solutions
C. Solve the equation

D. Checking Go back to your representation

If x= -8, then x –the first no- -8


x+1—the second no. (-8+1)= -7
Example: 2. Find two consecutive integers such that
the sum of their squares is 113.
