Answer:


x_1=3+2√(6)


x_2=3-2√(6)

Explanation


\rule{100mm}{0.5mm}


x^2-6x=15


x^2-6x+\left((6)/(2)\right)^2-\left((6)/(2)\right)^2=15


x^2-6x+3^2=15+3^2


x^2-6x+9=15+9


(x-3)^2=24


√((x-3)^2) =√(24)


x-3=\pm2√(6)


\red{\boxed{x_1=3+2√(6)}}


\red{\boxed{x_2=3-2√(6)}}


\rule {100mm}{0.5mm}
