Respuesta :

Answer:

x² - 6x = -5

x = {1, 5}

Step-by-step explanation:

The square of a number minus six times a number equals negative five.

x² - 6x = -5

Add 5 to both sides

x² - 6x + 5 = 0

Factor

(x - 1)(x - 5) = 0

x = {1, 5}

Answer:

[tex]x^{2} - 6x = -5[/tex]

x = 1 or x = 5

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x = the no.

[tex]x^{2} - 6x = -5\\x^{2} - 6x + 5 = 0[/tex]

(x - 1)(x - 5) = 0

x = 1 or x = 5
