Question

X^2 - 2x - 13 = 0 using the India method for solving quadratic equations

Answer 1

x^2 -2x +1 =14
(x-1)^2=14

Answer 2

x-1 = = + or - sqrt(14)

Answer 3

x= 1 +sqrt(14) or 1 - sqrt(14)

Answer 4

x^2 - 2x - 13 = 0
x^2 - 2x =13
4x^2 - 8x = 52
4x^2- 8x + 4 = 56
(2x - 2)^2= 56
2x - 2 = √(56) or 2x - 2 = -√(56)
x = (√(56)+2)/2 or x = (-(√56)+2)/2

Answer 5

what is the india method

Answer 6

sounds made up
