प्रश्न

Solve the following equation for x and give, in the following case, your answer correct to 2 decimal places:

x2 – 5x – 10 = 0

योग

उत्तर

x2 – 5x – 10 = 0

Here a = 1, b = –5 and c = –10

∴ `x = (-b +- sqrt(b^2 - 4ac))/(2a)`

= `(-(-5) +- sqrt((-5)^2 - 4 xx 1 xx (-10)))/(2 xx 1)`

= `(5 +- sqrt(25 + 40))/2`

= `(5 +- sqrt65)/2`

= `(5 +- 8.06)/2`

∴ `x = (5 + 8.06)/2` or `x = (5 - 8.06)/2`

`=> x = (13.06)/2` or `x = -(3.06)/2`

`=>` x = 6.53 or x = –1.53
