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.
⇒ 2(x2 - 2x + 1 + 4x2 + 4x + 1) = 5(2x2 – x – 1)
⇒ 10x2 + 4x + 4 = 10x2 – 5x – 5
⇒ 9x = -9
⇒ x = -1
