Question 183337: x(x-6) = 7
If I solve it: x^2-6x = 7
how do i continue from here? It is solving an equation but how do i reach x= ?

You can put this solution on YOUR website!
x%5E2-6x+=+7
x%5E2-6x+-+7=+0
Now you can factor it or use the quadratic equation.
Let;s factor this one
%28x-7%29%28x%2B1%29=+0
so x = 7 or x= -1
