Parth (parthkohli):

That means,\[x^2 - 9 = x\]Solve the quadratic.

OpenStudy (ny,ny):

yes, how to?

Parth (parthkohli):

Hmm... do you know any way to solve a quadratic equation?

OpenStudy (ny,ny):

x^2-x-9=0 and then factor it?

Parth (parthkohli):

How would you factor it? :-|

OpenStudy (ny,ny):

you cant, sorry. um use the formula? the formula's really long, do you know any other methods?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

If it's not factorable, using the formula is usually your best bet.
