Mathematician Finds Easier Way to Solve Quadratic Equations

\(
\begin{align}
x_{1,2} = - \frac{b}{2a} \pm \sqrt{\left(\frac{b}{2a}\right)^2 - \frac{c}{a}}
\end{align}
\)

Which is the same as the well-known quadratic formula:

\(
\begin{align}
x_{1,2} = \frac {-b \pm \sqrt {b^2 - 4ac}}{2a}
\end{align}
\)

Just this post to see how to use LaTeX.

PS: You missed a factor 2 in the denominator.
