Question 86496: Can you help me break this down and solve? Thank you so much.
x^2 - 3x = -6x - 1

Answer by checkley75(3666)   (Show Source): You can put this solution on YOUR website!
x^2-3x=-6x-1
x^2-3x+6x+1=0
x^2+3x+1=0
using the quadratic equation we get:

x=(-3+-sqrt[3^2-4*1*1])/2*1
x=(-3+-sqrt9-4])/2
x=(-3+-sqrt5)/2
x=(-3+-2.24)/2
x=(-3+2.24)/2
x=-.76/2
x=-38 answer.
x=(-3-2.24)/2
x=-5.24/2
x=-2.62 answer.
