Solve: mc001-1.jpg

x = 2

x = 10

x = 2 or x = 10

no real solution

Answer 1

I can't view the image file. Please either re-upload mc001-1.jpg or type the equation here.

If the equation is x^2 − 12x + 20 = 0 (a common form that gives the choices you listed), you can factor:

x^2 − 12x + 20 = (x − 2)(x − 10) = 0

So x = 2 or x = 10.

If the original equation is different, paste it and I’ll solve it.
