Solving Quadratic Equations using Quadratic Formula
If
a
x
2
+
b
x
+
c
= 0, then
x
=
-b
±
√
b
2
-
4ac
2a
So, if
10
x
2
-
15
x
-
10
= 0, then
x
=
-
(
-15
)
±
√
(
-15
)
2
-
(

(

)
(
-10
)
(

)
(

)
or,
x
=
15
±
√
225
+
400
20
or,
x
=
15
±
√
625
20
or,
x
=
15
±
25
20
or,
x
=
40
20
or,
x
=
-10
20
or,
x
=
2
or,
x
=
-1
