the sWe have the next quadratic formula:


x²-12x+85=0

Use the form x²+bx+c

Where:

a=1

b=-12

c=85

Then,


\begin{gathered} x=\frac{-(-12)\pm√((-12)^2-4(1)(85))^{}}{2(1)} \\ \end{gathered}
x=(12\pm14i)/(2)
\begin{gathered} x=(2(6+7i))/(2) \\ x=6+7i \end{gathered}

Hence, the correct answer is option A.
