Solve quadratic equation

Step 1: Identify values

a = 1

b = 5

c = 6

Step 2: Substitute into formula

x = (-5 ± √(5² − 4×1×6)) / (2×1)

Step 3: Solve inside the square root

5² = 25

4×1×6 = 24

So: √(25 − 24) = √1 = 1

Step 4: Final calculation

x = (-5 ± 1) / 2

Now split:

x = (-5 + 1)/2 = -4/2 = -2

x = (-5 - 1)/2 = -6/2 = -3

✅ Final Answer:

x = -2 and x = -3
