Hi

x%5E2-x-6+=+0 format ax^2 + bx + c

x+=+%28-b+%2B-+sqrt%28+b%5E2-4%2Aa%2Ac+%29%29%2F%282%2Aa%29+

x+=+%281+%2B-+sqrt%28+1+%2B+24%29%29%2F%282%29+

   x =  1/2 ± 5/2

, b =
, and c =
So the solution of the equation is x = 5

(a)
Quadratic formula: x+=+%28-+b+%2B-+sqrt%28b%5E2+-+4%2Aa%2Ac%29%29%2F%282%2Aa%29

(b)
If the equation is: x%5E2+-+x+-+6+=+0? Then:
a =   1
b = - 1
c = - 6

Solution would then be: highlight_green%28x+=+3%29, or highlight_green%28x+=+-+2%29
