Hello mate
The roots of the above quadratic equation
Quadratic equation could be factorised in three ways
- Splitting middle term method
- Squaring method
- Quadratic formula method
Using Splitting middle term method :-
Now,
The factors of constant term is 2 and 1
Here, 2 and 1 when added gives the coefficient term of
Therefore, we can split 3x as 2x and x
-»
Taking common factors :-
-»
Now, taking (x+2) as common , we get
-»
Since, both the terms equals to zero, each term also equals to zero.
Therefore, Case 1 :-
Case 2 :-
-»
Therefore, the roots are -2 and -1
Verification :-
Sum of roots = -2 + (-1)
Sum of roots = -2 - 1
Sum of roots = -3.....(1)
Product of roots = (-2)(-1)
Product of roots = 2......(2)
Now, The general for of quadratic equation is
-» [From (1)&(2)]
-»
Hence verified.
