GCSE: Factorising & Solving Quadratics CM

This worksheet is designed to give you extra practice on factorising quadratics and using this method
to solve quadratic equations.

1 Factorise each of the following expressions fully


(a) x 2 − x − 2 (b) x 2 + 3x + 2 (c) x 2 + 7x + 10 (d) x 2 − 14x + 48
(e) x 2 − 4x − 60 (f) x 2 + 12x + 32 (g) x 2 − 16x + 64 (h) x 2 − 11x − 12
(i) x 2 + 22x + 57 (j) x 2 − 6x + 8 (k) x 2 − 10x − 24 (l) x 2 + 8x − 48

2 Factorise each of the following expressions fully


(a) 3x 2 + 11x + 6 (b) 5x 2 − 18x − 8 (c) 5x 2 − 9x + 4 (d) 3x 2 + x − 4
(e) 5x 2 + 12x − 9 (f) 4x 2 + 15x − 4 (g) 4x 2 + 9x + 2 (h) 4x 2 − 13x − 12
(i) 4x 2 − 11x − 3 (j) 3x 2 − 4x − 4 (k) 5x 2 + 13x − 6 (l) 2x 2 + 7x − 4

3 Factorise each of the following expressions fully


(a) x 2 − 1 (b) x 2 − 16 (c) x 2 − 100 (d) x 2 − 169
(e) 4x 2 − 4 (f) 9 − x 2 (g) 16x 2 − 9 (h) x 2 y − 4y
(i) 9x 2 − 100 (j) 256 − x 4 (k) 16x 4 − 1 (l) ( x − 1) x 2 − 4 ( x − 1)

4 Solve the equations below


(a) x 2 + 2x − 15 = 0 (b) x 2 − 4x + 4 = 0 (c) x 2 + 8x + 15 = 0 (d) x 2 − 250x + 10000 = 0
(e) 6x 2 − x − 1 = 0 (f) 9x 2 + 9x = 10 (g) x 2 − 16 = 0 (h) 2x 2 − 5x − 3 = 0
(i) 5x 2 = 16 (1− x ) (j) x 2 − x − 6 = 0 (k) 12x 2 = x + 1 (l) 3x 2 − 14x + 15 = 0

5 James uses a random number generator to pick a positive integer n.


He multiples the number generated by the next consecutive integer and obtains 156.
(a) Show that n 2 + n − 156 = 0.
(b) Find the value of n.

6 Emily is going to paint one of the walls in her house.


An outline of the wall is shown below.
( x + 2)

x cm

All measurements are given in metres.


Emily estimates that exactly three-quarters of a tin of 1.25 L paint is enough to paint her wall.
Given that 1 L of paint covers 16 square metres, use Emily’s estimate to find x.
