  4. x = 0 or x = 5

Questions & Step-by-Step Solutions

What is the value of x in the quadratic equation x^2 - 5x + 6 = 0?
  • Step 1: Start with the quadratic equation: x^2 - 5x + 6 = 0.
  • Step 2: Look for two numbers that multiply to 6 (the last number) and add up to -5 (the middle number).
  • Step 3: The numbers -2 and -3 work because -2 * -3 = 6 and -2 + -3 = -5.
  • Step 4: Rewrite the equation using these numbers: (x - 2)(x - 3) = 0.
  • Step 5: Set each factor equal to zero: x - 2 = 0 and x - 3 = 0.
  • Step 6: Solve for x in each equation: x = 2 and x = 3.
