To find the quadratic equation with the given roots, we can use the fact that if a quadratic equation has roots α and β, then the equation can be written as (x - α)(x - β) = 0.

In this case, the roots are 3+i and 3-i. Plugging in these values, we get:

(x - (3+i))(x - (3-i)) = 0

To simplify this expression, we expand it:

(x - 3 - i)(x - 3 + i) = 0

Using the distributive property, we have:

(x - 3)^2 - (i)^2 = 0

Simplifying further, we have:

(x - 3)^2 - i^2 = 0
(x - 3)^2 - (-1) = 0
(x - 3)^2 + 1 = 0

This is the quadratic equation with the given roots. So the correct answer is:
x^2 - 6x + 10 = 0
