Solve the following equation by factorization
`sqrt(x(x - 7)) = 3sqrt(2)`
Advertisements
उत्तर
`sqrt(x(x - 7)) = 3sqrt(2)`,
Squaring both sides,
x(x - 7) = 9 x 2
⇒ x2 - 7x = 18
⇒ x2 - 7x - 18 = 0,
⇒ x2 - 9x + 2x - 18 = 0
⇒ x(x - 9) + 2(x - 9) = 0
⇒ (x - 9) (x + 2) = 0
Either x - 9 = 0,
then x = 9
or
x + 2 = 0,
then x = -2
∴ x = 9, -2
check
(i) If x = 9, then
L.H.S.
= `sqrt(x(x - 7)`
= `sqrt(9(9 - 7)`
= `sqrt(9 xx 2)`
= `sqrt(18)`
= `sqrt(9 xx 2)`
= `3sqrt(2)`
= R.H.S.
x = 9 is a root
(ii) If x = -2, then
L.H.S.
= `sqrt(x(x - 7)`
= `sqrt(-2(-2 - 7)`
= `sqrt(-2 xx -9)`
= `sqrt(18)`
= `sqrt(9 xx 2)`
= `3sqrt(2)`
= R.H.S.
∴ x = -2 is also its root
Hence x = 9, -2.
