00:0-1 to solve this equation Using the quadratic formula . Remember
00:05 from the previous example , the quadratic formula states that
00:10 the variable we're solving for in this case x is
00:16 equal to negative B plus or minus the square root
00:22 of B squared minus four ac All over to a
00:31 . The values for a B and C . In
00:33 the formula Come from the coefficients on our three terms
00:38 in the tri no meal . The value for A
00:43 comes from the coefficient on the X square term ,
00:47 Which in this case is one . So we say
00:50 that A equals one . The value for B comes
00:56 from the coefficient on the x term , which in
00:59 this case is -3 . So we say that B
01:03 equals -3 . And the value for C comes from
01:09 the constant term which in this case is negative four
01:13 . So we say C equals negative four , Plugging
01:19 these three values in for AB&C . Into the quadratic
01:23 formula we have X equals negative B which is negative
01:32 of negative three , or positive three . Yeah plus
01:37 or minus the square root of B squared which is
01:43 negative three squared or positive nine minus four times A
01:52 which is one . Mhm times C which is negative
01:56 for All over to a which is two times 1
02:05 or two . Simplifying inside the radical we have X
02:14 equals three plus or minus the square root of nine
02:20 minus four times one times negative four , which is
02:24 nine plus 16 over to simplifying further inside the radical
02:34 We have x equals three plus or minus the square
02:39 root of 25 . Over to EN Route 25 is
02:46 just five so we have three plus or -5 over
02:53 to . So our solution is either three plus 5/2
03:00 Which is 8/2 or four or 3 -5/2 Which is
03:10 negative 2/2 or negative one .
