Question 119086: kindly solve this quadratic equation using factoring method
m^2/18 - m/6 - 1 = 0

Answer by HyperBrain(694)   (Show Source): You can put this solution on YOUR website!
First let's eliminate the fractions by multiplying both sides by 18.

We have to find factors m+a and m+b such that:
ab=-18 and
a+b=-3

Searching, we have
a=-6
b=3

So, proceeding,


m-6=0 or m+3=0
m=6 or m=-3

Power up,
