x^2 + 3x - 4 = 0

Quadratic formula:  

x = -b +- sqrt{b^2 - 4ac}/(2a)

Let a = 1

Let b = 3

Let c = -4

Just plug into the quadratic formula and do the math.

We are looking for x.

x = -3 +- sqrt{3^2 - 4(1)(-4)}/2(1)

x = -3 +- sqrt{9 + 16}/2

x = -3 +- sqrt{25}/2

x = (-3 +- 5)/2

Separate x into two parts.

Part 1

x = (-3 -5)/2

x = (-8)/2

x = -4

Part 2

x = (-3 + 5)/2

x = 2/2

x = 1

Answer: x = -4,  x = 1
