Question 1:
Solve the quadratic equation, (y + 3)(y – 4) = 30
Solution:
(y + 3)(y – 4) = 30
y2 – 4y + 3y– 12 = 30
y2 – y – 12 – 30 = 0
y2 – y – 42 = 0
(y + 6)(y – 7) = 0
y + 6 = 0, y = –6
Or
y–7=0
y=7
Question 2:
Solve the quadratic equation, 5x2 = 3( x – 2) + 8
Solution:
5x2 = 3x – 6 + 8
5x2 – 3x – 2 = 0
(5x + 2)(x – 1) = 0
5x + 2 = 0, x
−

Or
x–1=0
x=1
