Hi, 

x^2+6x=16

x^2+6x-16 = 0

Solve using the quadratic formula



 
Solved by pluggable solver: SOLVE quadratic equation with variable
Quadratic equation  (in our case ) has the following solutons:

  

  

  

  For these solutions to exist, the discriminant  should not be a negative number.

  

  First, we need to compute the discriminant : .

  

  Discriminant d=100 is greater than zero. That means that there are two solutions: .

  

    

    

    

    Quadratic expression  can be factored:

  

  Again, the answer is: 2, -8.
Here's your graph:
