| ax^2 +bx+c = 0
x = ((βbΒ±(β(b^2 β4ac)))/(2a))
Example:
Find the values of x in the equation
x^2 +5x+4 = 0
In order to solve for that, letβ²s first take
a look on what are the values of a, b and c
1x^2 + 5x + 4 = 0
a = 1 ; b = 5 ; c = 4
Now, using the quadratic formula
x = ((β5Β±(β(5^2 β4(1)(4))))/(2(1)))
= ((β5Β±(β(25β16)))/2)
= ((β5Β±3)/2)
