Answer:
Solving x2-x-4 = 0 by the Quadratic Formula .
According to the Quadratic Formula, x , the solution for Ax2+Bx+C = 0 , where A, B and C are numbers, often called coefficients, is given by :
- B ± √ B2-4AC
x = ————————
2A
In our case, A = 1
B = -1
C = -4
Accordingly, B2 - 4AC =
1 - (-16) =
17
Applying the quadratic formula :
1 ± √ 17
x = —————
2
√ 17 , rounded to 4 decimal digits, is 4.1231
So now we are looking at:
x = ( 1 ± 4.123 ) / 2
Two real solutions:
x =(1+√17)/2= 2.562
or:
x =(1-√17)/2=-1.562
Two solutions were found :
x =(1-√17)/2=-1.562
x =(1+√17)/2= 2.562
