Answer:

x =
(5+√(17)i )/(7)

Explanation:

7
x^(2) - 10
x = -6

All equations of the form
ax^(2) +
bx + x = 0 0 can be solved using the quadratic formula:
\frac{-b±\sqrt{b^(2) - 4ac } }{2a}. The quadratic formula gives two solutions, one when ± is addition and one when it is subtraction.


7x^(2) - 10
x = -6

Add 6 to both sides of the equation.

7
x^(2) - 10
x - (-6) = -6 - (-6)

Subtracting −6 from itself leaves 0.


7x^(2) - 10
x + 6 = 0

This equation is in standard form:
ax^(2) + bx + c = 0. Substitute 7 for a, −10 for b, and 6 for c in the quadratic formula,
\frac{-b±\sqrt{b^(2 -4ac) } }{2a}


x =


\frac{-(-10) ± \sqrt{(-10)^(2)-4 x 7 x6 } }{2 x 7 }

Square −10.


x =


(- (-10) ±√(100 - 4 x 7x 6) )/(2x7)

Multiply −4 times 7


x =


(- (-10)± √(100 - 28 x 6) )/(2 x 7)

Multiply −28 times 6


x =
(-(-10)±√(100 - 168) )/(2x 7)

Add 100 to −168


x =
(-(-10)±√(-68) )/(2x7)

Take the square root of −68.


x =
(-(-10)± 2√(17i) )/(2x7)

The opposite of −10 is 10.


x =
(10±2√(17i) )/(2x7)

Multiply 2 times 7.


x =
(10±2√(17i) )/(14)

Now solve the equation
x =
(10±2√(17i) )/(14) when ± is plus. Add 10 to
2i
√(17).


x =
(10+2√(17i) )/(14)

Divide 10 +
2i
√(17) by 14


x =
(5+√(17i) )/(7)

Now solve the equation
x =
(10+2√(17i) )/(14) when ± is minus. Subtract
2i
√(17) from 10.


x =
(-2√(17i)+10 )/(14)

Divide 10 -
2i
√(17) by 14


x =
(-√(17)i +5 )/(7)

The equation is now solved.


x =
(5+√(17i) )/(7)

Hope it helps and have a great day! =D
