Answer:
lesser x is 1
greater x is 3
Step-by-step explanation:
Here, we want to solve the equation so as to get the bigger and the lesser x values
We proceed as follows;
x^2 -4x + 3 = 0
x^2 - x-3x + 3 = 0
x(x-1) -3(x-1) = 0
(x-3)(x-1) = 0
x = 3
or x = 1
Greater x is 3
lesser x is 1
3+-4=-1
3-4=-1
-1=-1
so the answer is:
-1 = -1
