You can prove that the formula is correct by substituting the formula in place of '''x''' in <math>ax^2+bx+c=0\!</math> and then gradually simplying the rather complicated formula that results, step by step. Eventually, if all the simplication steps are done correctly, it will simply to 0. | You can prove that the formula is correct by substituting the formula in place of '''x''' in <math>ax^2+bx+c=0\!</math> and then gradually simplying the rather complicated formula that results, step by step.
