Answer:

Full proof below

Step-by-step explanation:

$\displaystyle ax^2+bx+c=0\\\\ax^2+bx=-c\\\\x^2+\biggr(\frac{b}{a}\biggr)x=-\frac{c}{a}\\\\x^2+\biggr(\frac{b}{a}\biggr)x+\biggr(\frac{b}{2a}\biggr)^2=-\frac{c}{a}+\biggr(\frac{b}{2a}\biggr)^2\\\\x^2+\biggr(\frac{b}{a}\biggr)x+\frac{b^2}{4a^2}=-\frac{c}{a}+\frac{b^2}{4a^2}\\ \\\biggr(x+\frac{b}{2a}\biggr)^2=-\frac{4ac}{4a^2}+\frac{b^2}{4a^2}\\ \\\biggr(x+\frac{b}{2a}\biggr)^2=\frac{b^2-4ac}{4a^2}\\ \\x+\frac{b}{2a}=\pm\frac{\sqrt{b^2-4ac}}{2a}\\ \\x=\frac{-b\pm\sqrt{b^2-4ac}}{2a}$
