 Answer by Grinnell(63)      (Show Source): 
You can  put this solution on YOUR website! x^2-10x+25=3 
x^2-10x+22=0 
Put it thru the quadratic equation 
10(+or -) the square root of 12/ALL divided by 2 
(square root of 12 is 2xsquare root of three 
This divides evenly (go back to the quad formula) 
5(+or-) the square root of three is the answer.
 
Have your quadratic formula out and refer to this as you wade thru my answer!
