Question

What is x to the second power - 5x + 6 = 0

Answer 1

Do you mean x^2 - 5x + 6?

Answer 2

You need to use the quadratic formula.

Answer 3

Yea Ga

Answer 4

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

Answer 5

im not good in math !

Answer 6

I'll help you. :)

Answer 7

Okay, a quadratic equation looks like this:
\[ax^{2}+bx+c=0\]

Answer 8

So for your equation, \[x^{2} - 5x + 6 = 0\]
\[a = 1, b = -5, c = 6\]

Answer 9

So we plug that into the quadratic formula, and then solve. I'm going to need you to put in some input so I don't just give you the answer. Fair right?

Answer 10

\[x = \frac{ 5 \sqrt{5^{2} - 4(1)(6)}}{ 2(1) }\]

Answer 11

So, the first step is to simplify what's under the square root.
\[\sqrt{5^{2} - 4(1)(6)}\]

Answer 12

do you understand so far?

Answer 16

Okay, what do you not understand so far:
You don't know how I plugged in the variables into the equation?
You don't know how to solve:
\[\sqrt{5^{2} - 4(1)(6)}\]
