i give medals and fans

OpenStudy (ladiesman217):

\[x^2 – 7x = –13\]

OpenStudy (anonymous):

ok lets see

OpenStudy (anonymous):

x^2 - 7x + 13 = 0 a = 1, b = - 7,c = 13 - - 7 +/- Sqrt(49 - 4*1*13) / 2 7 +/- Sqrt49 - 52) / 2 7 +/- Sqrt -3 / 2 x = 1/2(7 - iSqrt3) x = 1/2(7 + iSqrt3) Ans D and that's the end XD

OpenStudy (anonymous):

u got it?

OpenStudy (ladiesman217):

not really

OpenStudy (anonymous):

what would you like me to explain a bit better?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

ok Add 13 to both sides x^2-7x+13=0 2. Use the quadratic formula: x=(-b+-sqrt(b^2-(4ac)))/2a ax^2+bx+c x=(7+-sqrt(49-52))/2 you get the square root of a negative number, which means that there are no real solutions to this equation.

kk

OpenStudy (anonymous):

but if you need an answer Put in the form ax^2 + bx + c = 0 So: x^2 - 7x + 13 = 0 Apply the quadratic equation x = (-b (+ or -) sqrt(b^2 - 4(a)(c)))/(2*a) Your answer is x = (7 +or- i*sqrt(3))/2
