MR-849 / 423f. problem

Using the formula  x1,2=-b±b2-4ac2a for solutions of a quadratic equation ax2+bx+c=0, solve the equation:

x2-919x+1=0

x2-919x+1=0

a=1 ; b=-919 ; c=1

x1,2=--919±-9192-4·1·12·1

x1,2=919±-8292-42

x1,2=919±-829·-829-42

x1,2=919±672481-42

x1,2=919±672481-324812

x1,2=919±6400812

x1,2=829±8092

x1=829+8092=162921=162·19·2=16218=9

x1=9

x2=829-8092=2921=2·19·2=218=19

x2=19

x1=9 ; x2=19
