x=3

6 x 6 = 34 - 6 = 28 not 6
OpenStudy (anonymous):
Okay first off you need to bring the 6 - x to the other side.
You subtract the 6 and add the x so the entire right side will cancel.
You're left with
x^2 + x - 6 = 0
Now you can factor them :)
(x + 3) (x - 2)
You can check if this is right by foiling them to see if you're left with x^2 + x - 6.
Now you set both equations equal to zero.
x + 3 = 0
x = -3
x - 2 = 0
x = 2
So your two possible answers for x are either -3 or 2 :)
I hope this helps if you have questions just feel free to ask.

Math is not my favorite, though we get along

factoring oh nice FlvsGirl
OpenStudy (anonymous):
yay
OpenStudy (potatoes.ramu):
@FlvsGirl , if you bring the 6 on the right hand side it becomes 6+x not, 6-x

@AmberLynn127
OpenStudy (anonymous):
what unit is this @AmberLynn127
OpenStudy (potatoes.ramu):
@JoshCatman you were right
OpenStudy (anonymous):
x^2 - 6 = x
(x^2 - 6) + (-x) = x + (-x)
x^2 - 6 - x = 0
solution set = [3 , -2]
OpenStudy (potatoes.ramu):
^ he's right
