Ex 4.3 ,2 Find the roots of the quadratic equation using quadratic formula (i) 2x2 7x + 3 = 0 2x2 7x + 3 = 0 Comparing equation with ax2 + bx + c = 0 a = 2, b = 7, c = 3 We know that D = b2 4ac D = ( 7)2 4 2 3 D = ( 7 7) (4 2 3) D = 49 24 D = 25 The roots to equation is given by x = ( )/2 Putting values x = ( ( 7) 25)/(2 2) x = (7 (5^2 ))/4 x = (7 5)/4 Solving Both Hence , the roots to equation are 3 and 1/2 .
