Question

Solve the following quadratic equations by any method. The solutions are:

Answer 1

Answer:

Option C .

Step-by-step explanation:

We would like to solve the below quadratic equation ,

$\longrightarrow f(x) = x^2-12x +32$

Step 1 : Equate f(x) with 0 :-

$\longrightarrow f(x) = 0$

$\longrightarrow x^2-12x + 32=0$

Step 2 : Factorise the RHS :-

$\longrightarrow x^2-8x - 4x +32=0$

$\longrightarrow x(x-8)-4(x-8)=0$

$\longrightarrow (x-8)(x-4)=0$

Step 3 : Equate each factor with 0 :-

$\longrightarrow x - 8 = 0\\ \qquad x -4=0$

$\longrightarrow x = 8 \qquad x = 4$

$\longrightarrow \underline{\underline{\boldsymbol{ x = 8,4}}}$

Hence option C is correct .
