Using factorization method;
x²+13x+40=0
x²+13+40
Find two numbers that you can add together to give the co-efficient of variable x. (I.e 13 for this question). Also, you'll find two numbers that you can multiply with each other to give you the whole number as an answer. (I.e 40 in this question). The two numbers must be the same (i.e the two numbers that will be added to give the co-efficient of x and the two numbers that will be multiplied to give the whole number must be the same two).
The two numbers are +5 and +8
The equation will therefore be = x²+5x+8x+40
You'll then factorize (I.e use a common factor of both values to bracket them)
x(x+5)+8(x+5)
(x+8)(x+5)
x is therefore (x+8=0) or (x+5=0)
x=(x=0-8) or (x=0-5)
x= -8 or x= -5

please correct me if im wrong!! have a great day!! :)
Answer:
-(-5) ± √13 5 ± √13
x = ----------------------- = ---------------
2(3) 6
Step-by-step explanation:
This is a quadratic equation, with coefficients 3, -5 and 1.
The discriminant, b² - 4ac, turns out to be (-5)² - 4(3)(1), or 25 - 12 = 13
Thus, the roots are:
-(-5) ± √13 5 ± √13
x = ----------------------- = ---------------
2(3) 6
In order to find the value of x, you have to cross multiply both equations. 4x-10 is basically 4 times something subtract 10. Same thing as well for 3x-2. Now it says to find the value of x. X has to also be the same answer for both equation as well. By the way x doesn't have a given number so there is no specific answer.
