let's solve ~
[tex]\qquad \sf \dashrightarrow \: {x}^{2} - 7x + 12 = 0 [/tex]
[tex]\qquad \sf \dashrightarrow \: x {}^{2} - 4x - 3x + 12 = 0 [/tex]
[tex]\qquad \sf \dashrightarrow \: x(x - 4) - 3(x - 4) = 0[/tex]
[tex]\qquad \sf \dashrightarrow \: (x - 4)(x - 3) = 0[/tex]
Therefore, the required values of x are ~
[tex]\overbrace{ \underbrace{\underline{ \boxed{ \sf 3 \: and \: 4}}}}[/tex]
Answer:
x = 3,4
Step-by-step explanation:
[tex]\displaystyle \large{(x-a)(x-b)=x^2-bx-ax+ab \longrightarrow x^2-(b+a)x+ab}[/tex]
Above is formula for factoring of two brackets for a = 1 from ax^2 + bx + c.
First, find the factors of 12:
- 1 and 12
- 2 and 6
- 3 and 4
If we multiply the factors together, we get same ab-value which is 12. Next, we find the middle term. A middle term can’t be found by adding factors together.
Our middle term is -7x and the only factors that satisfy -7x would be 3 and r using (x-a)(x-b) standard.
Hence, our a is 3 and b is 4. Substitute in:
[tex]x^2-7x+12 = x^2-(3+4)x + 3(4) = (x-3)(x-4)[/tex]
Set (x-3)(x-4) = 0 then we obtain:
x-3 = 0 or x-4 = 0 —> solve like linear by transporting the constant and change the sign.
Hence, “x = 3 or x = 4”
You can also write x = 3,4 instead or x = 4,3.
