Solve x^2-6x+2=0 - ScanMath

Evaluate

x^{2} - 6 x + 2 = 0

Substitute a= 1,b= - 6 and c= 2 into the quadratic formula x = \frac{- b \pm b ^{2} - 4 a c}{2 a}

x = \frac{6 \pm ( - 6 ) ^{2} - 4 \times 2}{2}

Simplify the expression

More Steps

x = \frac{6 \pm 28}{2}

Simplify the radical expression

More Steps

x = \frac{6 \pm 2 7}{2}

Separate the equation into 2 possible cases

x = \frac{6 + 2 7}{2} x = \frac{6 - 2 7}{2}

Simplify the expression

More Steps

x = 3 + 7 x = \frac{6 - 2 7}{2}

Simplify the expression

More Steps

x = 3 + 7 x = 3 - 7

Solution

x_{1} = 3 - 7, x_{2} = 3 + 7

Alternative Form

x_{1} \approx 0.354249, x_{2} \approx 5.645751
