Answer:

B displays correct solutions for x² +9x +12 = 6

Explanation:


\rightarrow \sf x^2 + 9x + 12 = 6


\rightarrow \sf x^2 + 9x +12 -6 = 0


\rightarrow \sf x^2 + 9x + 6 =0

use the formula:
\sf \bold{x = ( -b \pm √(b^2 - 4ac))/(2a ) \ \ when \ \ \ ax^2 + bx + c = 0}


\rightarrow \sf x = ( -9 \pm √((-9)^2 - 4(1)(6)))/(2(1))


\rightarrow \sf x = ( -9 \pm √(57))/(2)


\rightarrow \sf x = ( -9)/(2) +(√(57))/(2) ;
\sf x = ( -9)/(2) -(√(57))/(2)
