Solve the following quadratic equations by factorization:\(16x-\frac{10}{x}=27\)

Answer»

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.

\(16x-\frac{10}{x}=27\)

⇒ 16x2 – 27x – 10 = 0 

⇒ 16x2 – 32x + 5x – 10 = 0 

⇒ 16x(x – 2) + 5(x – 2) = 0 

⇒ (16x + 5)(x – 2) = 0 

⇒ x = -5/16, 2
