Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Equation

x² + 9x + 20 = 0

Find:

Value of x using quadratic formula

Computation:

Quadratic formula = [-b±√b²-4ac] / 2a

Given equation;

x² + 9x + 20 = 0

a = 1 , b = 9 , c = 20

By putting value

[-9±√9²-4(1)(20)] / 2(1)

[-9±√81-80] / 2

[-9±√1] / 2

(-9 + 1) / 2 , (-9 - 1) / 2

-8 / 2 , 10 / 2

-4 , - 5

Combine into single fraction :
------------------------------------------------------------------------

$\dfrac{4}{8}$
