Answer:


\sf x = -1 + √(5)\:i,\: -1 - √(5)\:i

Step-by-step explanation:


\sf \rightarrow x^2 + 2x +6 = 0


\sf use\:quadratic\:formula: x = ( -b \pm √(b^2 - 4ac))/(2a) \quad when \: \: ax^2 + bx + c = 0

comparing identify:

  • a = 1, b = 2, c = 6

Substitute inside the formula:


\rightarrow \sf x = ( -2 \pm √(2^2 - 4(1)(6)))/(2(1))

evaluate:


\rightarrow \sf x = ( -2 \pm √(4 - 24))/(2)


\rightarrow \sf x = ( -2 \pm √(- 20))/(2)


\rightarrow \sf x = ( -2 \pm 2√(5)\:i)/(2)


\rightarrow \sf x =-1 \pm √(5)\:i


\rightarrow \sf x = -1 + √(5)\:i,\: -1 - √(5)\:i
