Problem
Find the sum and product of roots of the quadratic equation x2 - 2x + 5 = 0.

## Quadratic Equations in One Variable

Quadratic equation is in the form

$ax^2 + bx + c = 0$

Where
a, b, & c = real-number constants
a & b = numerical coefficient or simply coefficients
a = coefficient of x2
b = coefficient of x
c = constant term or simply constant
a cannot be equal to zero while either b or c can be zero

Solve for $x$ from the following equations:

1. $\left( \dfrac{x^2 - 15}{x} \right)^2 - 16\left( \dfrac{15 - x^2}{x} \right) + 28 = 0$

2. $\dfrac{x}{\sqrt{x} + \sqrt{9 - x}} + \dfrac{x}{\sqrt{x} - \sqrt{9 - x}} = \dfrac{24}{\sqrt{x}}$
