Given

Quadratic equation

Find

Explain best method to solve equation

Step-by-step explanation

I prefer the factorisation method to solve the equation.

to solve the equation with this method we take following steps

1. Put all the terms on one side.

2. then factor

3. now, set every factor equal to zero

4. next, solve the new equation which obtained by taking equal to zero

5. atlast, check the solution by puting values in main equation

Now, let us take an example


x^2-6x=16

now, use step 1st


x^2-6x-16

next, factor


(x-8)(x+2)=0

now, put each factor equal to 0 and solve for x


\begin{gathered} x-8=0,\text{ x+2=0} \\ x=8.\text{ x=-2} \end{gathered}

Final Answer

Factorisation is the best method to solve quadratic equation
