Answer

Find out the  solutions of the quadratic equation.

x² = –5x – 3

To prove

As the quadratic equation be.

x² +  5x + 3 = 0

Discriminant Formula

\(x = \frac{-b\pm\sqrt{b^{2} -4ac} }{2a}\)

As a = 1 , b  = 5 , c = 3

Put in the formula

\(x = \frac{-5\pm\sqrt{5^{2} -4\times 1\times 3} }{2\times 1}\)

\(x = \frac{-5\pm\sqrt{25 -12} }{2\times 1}\)

\(x = \frac{-5\pm\sqrt{13} }{2\times 1}\)

Thus the solutions of x² = –5x – 3 are

\(x = \frac{-5\ +\sqrt{13} }{2}\)

and

\(x = \frac{-5\ -\sqrt{13} }{2}\)
