Is x = 5 a solution of the quadratic equation x2 – 2x – 15 = 0?
उत्तर
x2 – 2x – 15 = 0
For x = 5 to be solution of the given quadratic equation it should satisfy the equation.
So, substituting x = 5 in the given equation, we get
L.H.S = (5)2 – 2(5) – 15
= 25 – 10 – 15
= 0
= R.H.S
Hence, x = 5 is a solution of the quadratic equation x2 – 2x – 15 = 0.
