Step-by-step explanation:
Method 1: A quadratic equation is of the form ax^2+bx+c = 0
See if b can be written as a sum or difference of ac.
Here b = 9, and ac = 20 = 4x5
Given that x^2+9x+20 = 0
break up the coefficient of x and write the equation as
x^2+4x+5x+20 = 0
Make pairs of terms and take out the like terms as
x(x+4) + 5(x+4) = 0, then the factors to get
(x+4)(x+5) = 0. From this we conclude
So x = -4 or -5. Answer.
Method 2: A quadratic equation is of the form ax^2+bx+c = 0
x1 = [-b+(b^2–4ac)^0.5]/2
x2 = [-b- (b^2–4ac)^0.5]/2
Applying it in this equation: x^2+9x+20 = 0
x1 = [-9+(9^2 -4*1*20)^0.5]/2
= [-9+(81–80)^0.5]/2
= [-9+1]/2
= [-8]/2 = -4
x2 = [-9-(9^2 -4*1*20)^0.5]/2
= [-9-(81–80)^0.5]/2
= [-9-1]/2
= [-10]/2 = -5.
x= -4 or -5. Answer.
