it's x^2 +7x-6=0?
OpenStudy (dragon123mama):
yeah
OpenStudy (dragon123mama):
no -7x sorry type
OpenStudy (dragon123mama):
typo**
OpenStudy (mariamikayla):
x^2-7x-6=0
a=1
b= -7
c= -6
Delta= b^2 -4ac
Delta= (-7)^2 -4*1*(-6) = 49 +24= 73
x1;x2= (-b +/- root from Delta)/2a
x1= (-b+ root from Delta)/2a= (-(-7) + root 73)/2*1= (7+ root 73)/2
x2=(-b - root from Delta)/2a= (-(-7) - root 73)/2*1= (7 - root 73)/2
Solution is S={ (7-root 73)/2 ; (7+root 73)/2}

what is root and delta. i have no idea what that is.... you made it more confusing..
OpenStudy (mariamikayla):
\[\sqrt{x}\] -is root
OpenStudy (dragon123mama):
oh
OpenStudy (mariamikayla):
\[\Delta \] -is delta
OpenStudy (dragon123mama):
