It helps to memorize the quadratic formula as a song. Try in the tune of pop goes the weasel. The quadratic formula is -b. Plus or minus the square root. Of b squared minus 4ac. All over 2a! Just plug in the numbers and you should get an answer. Let me know if you need more help :)

You haven't shared what you're supposed to do here. Instructions?

If you want to find the roots of 0 = x^2+5x - 6, identify the coefficients of the x terms as follows: a=1, b=5 and c= -6.

-5 plus or minus sqrt( 25-4(1)(-6) )
Then x = -------------------------------------------------
2
-5 plus or minus sqrt(49)
= ------------------------------------
2

Thus, there will be two unequal, real answers. Please finish the math and identify these answers.
