To solve (find the roots of) the quadratic equation
=0:
First, we'll attempt to factor this quadratic equation as a trinomial.
is a valid trinomial that might be factorable.
This trinomial can be factored. Here is it in factored form:=( x-9 )( x-4 )
With the two factors found, we now solve the equations:
x-9 =0 and x-4 =0.
Solving x-9 =0, we get that x= 9
Solving x-4 =0 and, we get that x= 4
Therefore, x= 9 and x= 4 are the roots to the quadratic equation
