Find the Quadratic Equation Given the Roots
(1,3)
Step 1
x=1 and x=3 are the two real distinct solutions for the quadratic equation, which means that x-1 and x-3 are the factors of the quadratic equation.
(x-1)(x-3)=0
Step 2
Expand (x-1)(x-3) using the FOIL Method.

Step 2.1
Apply the distributive property.
x(x-3)-1(x-3)=0
Step 2.2
Apply the distributive property.
xx+x-3-1(x-3)=0
Step 2.3
Apply the distributive property.
xx+x-3-1x-1-3=0
xx+x-3-1x-1-3=0

Step 3.1.1
Multiply x by x.
x2+x-3-1x-1-3=0
Step 3.1.2
Move -3 to the left of x.
x2-3x-1x-1-3=0
Step 3.1.3
Rewrite -1x as -x.
x2-3x-x-1-3=0
Step 3.1.4
Multiply -1 by -3.
x2-3x-x+3=0
x2-3x-x+3=0
Step 3.2
Subtract x from -3x.
x2-4x+3=0
x2-4x+3=0
Step 4
The standard quadratic equation using the given set of solutions {1,3} is y=x2-4x+3.
y=x2-4x+3
