3 = x^2 + 6x - 5
0 = x^2 + 6x - 8

...unless you meant -6x, this equation is unfactorable

On the paper it says +6x  @jackthegreatest

jackthegreatest · Answer

ahh i didnt see the - x^2

jackthegreatest · Answer

sorry....so:
0 = -x^2 + 6x - 8
0 = (-x +2)(x-4)

jackthegreatest · Answer

x = 2 or x = 4
