Hi,
Using the Quadratic Formula:
x+=+%28-b+%2B-+sqrt%28+b%5E2-4%2Aa%2Ac+%29%29%2F%282%2Aa%29+
x^2 - 6x + 10 = 0 x+=+%286+%2B-+sqrt%28+-4+%29%29%2F%282%29+=+3+%2B-+i+
x^2 - 6x - 10 = 0 x+=+%286+%2B-+sqrt%28+76+%29%29%2F%282%29+
x^2 - 6x + 8 = 0 (x-2)(x-4)= 0 or x+=+%286+%2B-+sqrt%28+4+%29%29%2F%282%29+
x^2 - 6x - 8 = 0 x+=+%286+%2B-+sqrt%2868+%29%29%2F%282%29+
