Question

X²-x-6=0. find the values of x​

Answer 1

x = -2 and 3

Explanation:

1. get the factors

(x+2) and (x-3)

2. set them equal to zero to get x

x+2 = 0 (minus 2)

x - 3 = 0 (add 3)

Answer 2

x=−2 or x=3

Explanation:

x2−x−6=0

Step 1: Factor the left side of the equation.

(x+2)(x−3)=0

Step 2: Set factors equal to 0.

x+2=0 or x−3=0

x=−2 or x=3
