Solve the equation x2 - 6x + 5 = 0 by graphing the related function.

The solutions are 1 and 5.

Step-by-step explanation:

x2 − 6x + 5 = 0

Step 1: Write the related function.

x2 − 6x + 5 = 0

y = x2 − 6x + 5

Step 2: Graph the function.

Use a graphing calculator.

Step 3: Find the zeros.

The zeros are 1 and 5.

let's call the solutions x₁ = (5 - 2√7)/3 and x₂ = (5 + 2√7)/3

then the equation is (x-x₁)(x-x₂) = 0

if you fill that in you get a lot of numbers which you can recognize as ax²+bx+c=0.

step-by-step explanation:

you can see that a=1 (there is just an x²)

b = (-5 -2√7 + 2√7 - 5)/3 = -10/3

c = -2√7)/3 ) * (-5+2√7)/3) = -1/3

so your answer is 3x^2 – 10x – 1 = 0

they aren't great and cause destruction, idk man
