Answer:

The value of x is -3 and 2.

Explanation:

First, you have to elaborate the equation :


{x}^(2) + x - 6 = 0


{x}^(2) - 2x + 3x - 6 = 0

Next, you can factorize it by taking out the like-terms :


x(x - 2) + 3(x - 2) = 0


(x + 3)(x - 2) = 0

Lastly you have to solve it :


x + 3 = 0


x = - 3


x - 2 = 0


x = 2
