Given:
x² -8x +12
To factorise it .
Pre - requisite knowledge:
Quadratic Equation:
middle split term: The method of splitting the middle term of a quadratic equation so as to factorise it.
Solving Question :
we can use the quadratic equation or through middle split term method to factorise it.
Solution:
x² -8x +12 = 0
⇒ x² -6x -2x +12 = 0
or, x(x-6) -2(x -6) = 0
or, ( x -6) (x - 2) = 0
∴ x - 6 = 0
⇒ x = 6
and
x - 2 = 0
⇒ x = 2
∴ The value of 'x' is 2 and 6 HOPE IT HELPS PLEASE MARK ME AS BRAINLIEST
