a rule in quadratic equ states that
if summation of the roots should be -b/a of the equa
comparing the equ x² – 6x + y=0
with. ax² + bx +c =0
we see that in the equ, a= 1, b=-6
so the sum of the roots is -(-6)/1= +6
looking the the option the only one that agreed is option A
-2 + 8= 6
there fore the values of x are -2 or 8
The correct answer is A
