Exercise
$225x^2-120x+16=0$
Step-by-step Solution
Learn how to solve quadratic equations problems step by step online. Solve the quadratic equation 225x^2-120x+16=0. To find the roots of a polynomial of the form ax^2+bx+c we use the quadratic formula, where in this case a=225, b=-120 and c=16. Then substitute the values of the coefficients of the equation in the quadratic formula: \displaystyle x=\frac{-b\pm\sqrt{b^2-4ac}}{2a}. Simplifying. To obtain the two solutions, divide the equation in two equations, one when \pm is positive (+), and another when \pm is negative (-). Add the values 120 and 0.
