Solve by using the quadratic formula: x^2 - 6x + 7 = 0 Please enter any square root values using "sqrt" or the decimal answer rounded to the nearest hundredth (i.e. V2 = sqrt(2) or 1.41).​

Respuesta :

Given parameters:

 Quadratic expression:

                 x² - 6x + 7 = 0

Solve using quadratic formula;

                      x   = [tex]\frac{-b +/- \sqrt{b^{2 } - 4ac} }{2a}[/tex]

From the equation;

  a  = 1, b = -6 and c = 7

Input the parameters and solve;

           x = [tex]\frac{-(-6) +/- \sqrt{-6^{2 } + 4 x 1 x 7 } }{2 x 1}[/tex]

          x = [tex]\frac{6 +/- \sqrt{36} +28 }{2}[/tex]

        x = [tex]\frac{6 +/- \sqrt{64} }{2}[/tex]

          x = [tex]\frac{6 + 8}{2 }[/tex]    or [tex]\frac{6-8}{2}[/tex]

          x = 7 or -1

         

Answer:x is 7 or -1

Step-by-step explanation: based on the quadratic expression
