Question 870895
The first problem is correct.
2. solve the equation x^2 - 6x = 2
This problem can be done easily by "completing the square"
x^2 - 6x + ____ = 2
To find the 3rd term which completes the square:
 divide the coefficient of x by 2 and square it; (-6/2)^2 = 9
Add 9 to both sides
x^2 - 6x + 9 = 2 + 9
which is
(x - 3)^2 = 11
look familiar doesn't it
x - 3 = +/-{{{sqrt(11)}}}
Two solutions
x = 3 + {{{sqrt(11)}}}
and
x = 3 - {{{sqrt(11)}}}
