Hmm? how Al khawarizmi solve 3x + 2 = 8?

0r how he used the knowledge of ;

Area = width x length

in order to solve the question of expansion
( x+ 1) ( x+ 2)....

It is interesting if you know the method!!!!!!

See you all in the class!!

How Al khwarizmi solve Algebra and what the meaning of algebra?

In his book , in order to solve x2 = 40x -4x2

he ( Alkhwarizmi ) , transformed by al -jabr to

5x2=40x

The word algebra comes from the word "al-jabr "

"al-jabr " means (restoration of completion) or generally refers to the removal of the negative quantity from the equation .

"al-muqabala " means (balancing ) refers to the removal of the positifve quantities.
