Solve the following quadratic equations by factorization:
In factorization, we write the middle term of the quadratic equation either as a sum of two numbers or difference of two numbers such that the equation can be factorized.
⇒ 3x2 – 15x + x – 5 = 0
⇒ 3x(x – 5) + 1(x – 5) = 0
⇒ (3x + 1)(x – 5) = 0
⇒ x = 5, -1/3
