Solve \(\displaystyle x^{2} - 19 x + 90=0\)
Since \(\displaystyle a=1\) we need to find factors of \(\displaystyle 90\) that add up to \(\displaystyle -19\). The factors are \(\displaystyle -10\) and \(\displaystyle -9\). This gives \(\displaystyle (x - 10)(x - 9)=0\). The solutions are \(\displaystyle x = 10\) and \(\displaystyle x = 9\)
