Answer:
x =(6+√276)/2=3+√ 69 = 11.307
Step by step solution :
Step 1 :
Trying to factor by splitting the middle term
1.1 Factoring x2-6x-60
The first term is, x2 its coefficient is 1 .
The middle term is, -6x its coefficient is -6 .
The last term, "the constant", is -60
Step-1 : Multiply the coefficient of the first term by the constant 1 • -60 = -60
Step-2 : Find two factors of -60 whose sum equals the coefficient of the middle term, which is -6 .
