x^2=6x-18
x^2-6x+18=0
x+=+%28-b+%2B-+sqrt%28+b%5E2-4%2Aa%2Ac+%29%29%2F%282%2Aa%29+
x=(6+-sqrt[-6^2-4*1*18])/2*1
x=(6+-sqrt36-72])/2
x=(6+-sqrt-36)/2
x=(6+-6i)/2
x=6/2+-6i/2
x=3+-3i answers.

x^2=6x-18 I am looking for the solution set
x^2 = 6*x - 18
x^2 - 6*x + 18 = 0
This is a quadratic equation in standard form with a=1, b=-6 and c=18. The solution set is the two values of x given by the quadratic formula.
