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.
⇒ (5 - x)(3x – 1) = 4x + 4
⇒ -3x2 + 16x – 5 = 4x + 4
⇒ 3x2 - 12x + 9 = 0
⇒ 3x2 – 3x – 9x + 9 = 0
⇒ 3x(x – 1) -9(x – 1) =0
⇒ (3x – 9)(x – 1) = 0
⇒ x = 1, 3
