🟰 Equation Solver

මෙම කැල්ක්යුලේටරය ගැන

An equation solver finds the values that satisfy an equation. This tool solves linear equations, quadratic equations (via the quadratic formula, including complex roots) and systems of two linear equations. Choose the type, enter the coefficients, and get the solution with the key working shown.

For a linear equation ax + b = 0 it simply rearranges to x = -b/a. For a quadratic ax² + bx + c = 0 it applies the quadratic formula, first computing the discriminant b² − 4ac: a positive discriminant gives two real roots, zero gives one repeated root, and a negative discriminant gives a pair of complex-conjugate roots which it reports rather than declaring "no solution". For a 2×2 system it solves the two lines simultaneously to find the single point where they cross.

For a worked example, solving x² − 5x + 6 = 0 gives a discriminant of 25 − 24 = 1, so the roots are x = (5 ± 1)/2, that is x = 3 and x = 2. By contrast x² + 1 = 0 has discriminant -4 and returns the complex roots x = i and x = -i. Students use it to check algebra homework, find where a parabola crosses the x-axis, or solve the pair of equations behind a word problem.
