What are the solutions of x squared + 6 x minus 6 = 10?

Answer 1

The answer is X= -8 and x= 2

Answer 2

X = -8 and X = 2

Explanation:

X^2 + 6X - 6 = 10

Bring the 10 over:

X^2 + 6x - 16 = 0

From here, either use the quadratic formula or

manual factorization by finding its roots:

Manually:

(X + 8)(X - 2) = 0

Equate each factor to 0 you will get:

X + 8 = 0 and X - 2 = 0

Solutions are -8 and 2 respectively.
