Solve the following quadratic equations by factorization:
![]()
In factorization, we write the middle term of the quadratic equation either as a sum of two numbers or difference of two numbers such that the equation can be factorized.
![]()
⇒ 7(x2 – 6x + 9 – (x2 + 9 + 6x)) = 48(x2 – 9)
⇒ -84x = 48x2 – 432
⇒ 4x2 + 7x – 36 = 0
⇒ 4x2 + 16x – 9x – 36 = 0
⇒ 4x(x + 4) -9(x + 4) = 0
⇒ (4x – 9)(x + 4) = 0
⇒ x = 9/4, -4
