Answer:
x=-4
x=6
Step-by-step explanation:
Lets put to work the well known quadratic equation:
[tex]x=\frac{-b+/- \sqrt{b^{2}-4ac } }{2a}[/tex]
Let us also, remember the given equation: x^2-2x-24=0
Where 'a' would be equals to 1, 'b' equals to -2 and c equals to -24.
The quadratic equations with those values is:
[tex]\frac{2 +/- \sqrt{4+96} }{2}[/tex]
Where we obtain two values.
x1= -4
and x2= 6
