Question

What equation results from completing the square and then factoring? x2 + 6x = 13

Answer 1

Step 1: Subtract 13 from both sides.
x^2+6x−13=13−13x^2+6x−13=0
Step 2: Use quadratic formula with a=1, b=6, c=-13.
x=−b±√b2−4ac2ax=−(6)±√(6)2−4(1)(−13)2(1)
x=−6±√882
x=−3+√22 or x=−3−√22
Answer would be
x=−3+√22 or x=−3−√22
