Question

What are the solutions of this quadratic equation?
X2– 6x= – 58

Answer 1

No real Solutions

Explanation:

Step one: The coefficient on -6x is -6. So b= -6

Step two: Add (b/2)^2 to each side. in our case it is 9

x^2-6x+9= -49

Step three: Factor left side

(x-3)^2 = -49

Step four: take the square root

x-3 = ±√-49

Step five: add 3 to both sides

x = 3 ± √-49

So there is no real solutions
