प्रश्न

Solve the following equation:

`x - 18/x = 6` Give your answer correct to two significant figures.

उत्तर

`x = 18/x = 6`

`=> x^2 - 6x - 18 = 0`

here a = 1, b = -6 and c = -18

Thus the rootsof theequationwill be

`x = (-b +- sqrt(b^2 - 4ac))/"2a"`

`x = (-b +- sqrt(b^2 - 4ac))/(2a)`

`=> x = (-(-6) +- sqrt((-6)^2 - 4(1)(-18)))/(2(1))`

`=> x = (6 +- sqrt108)/2`

`=> x = (6+-6sqrt3)/2`

`=> x = 3+-3sqrt3`

`=> x = 3+- 3xx 1.73`       [using `sqrt3 = 1.73`]

`=> x = 8.19 and -2.19`
