F,A,D,C,E,B

Explanation:

I had this problem on algebra nation and got it right

Answer 2

To solve the quadratic by complete square method we proceed as follows:
x²-6x+7=0
this can be written as:
x²-6x=-7
but
c=(-b/2a)^2
c=(-(-6)/2)^2=9
next we add 9 on both sides of our expression to get:
x²-6x+9=-7+9
x²-6x+9=2
factoring out the LHS we get:
(x-3)(x-3)=2
(x-3)²=2
getting the square root of both sides we obtain:
x-3=+/-√2
hence:
x=3+/-√2
