Full solution

Q. Find the solutions of the following equation:\newlinex23x+1=0 x^{2}-3 x+1=0
  1. Identify coefficients: Identify coefficients aa, bb, and cc from the equation x23x+1=0x^2 - 3x + 1 = 0. \newlinea=1a = 1, b=3b = -3 and c=1c = 1.
  2. Use quadratic formula: Use the quadratic formula x=b±b24ac2ax = \frac{-b \pm \sqrt{b^2 - 4ac}}{2a}. \newlineSubstitute a=1a = 1, b=3b = -3, c=1c = 1 into the formula. \newlinex=(3)±(3)241121x = \frac{-(-3) \pm \sqrt{(-3)^2 - 4\cdot 1\cdot 1}}{2\cdot 1}
  3. Simplify expression: Simplify the expression under the square root. \newline94=5\sqrt{9 - 4} = \sqrt{5}
  4. Continue with formula: Continue with the quadratic formula.\newlinex=3±52x = \frac{3 \pm \sqrt{5}}{2}
  5. Write roots in simplest form: Write the roots in simplest form.\newlineRoots are x=3+52x = \frac{3 + \sqrt{5}}{2} and x=352x = \frac{3 - \sqrt{5}}{2}
