Answer:

B. X= 5 + 3i

5 + 3i

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given the quadratic equation

x² - 10x = -34

x² - 10x + 34 = 0

Using Almighty formula

x = -b ± √b² - 4ac/2a

When given equation: ax² + bx + c

Where: a = 1, b = -10 , c = 34

x = -10 ± √-10² - 4 × 1 × 34/2 × 1

x = 10 ± √100 - 136/2

x = 10 ± √-36 /2

x = 10/2 ±. √-36/2

x = 5 ± 6i /2

x = 5 ± 3i

Hence: the roots of the equation are:

x = 5 - 3i , x = 5 + 3i
