Answer:

Not correct

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

x² - 6x - 7 = 0

The following equation can be solved correctly by factoring Thus,

x² - x + 7x - 7 = 0

x(x - 1) +7(x - 1) = 0

(x - 1)(x + 7) = 0

(x - 1) = 0

x - 1 = 0

x - 1 + 1 = 0 + 1

x = 1

Or

(x + 7) = 0

x + 7 = 0

x + 7 - 7 = 0 - 7

x = -7

Therefore, the solution would be x = 1 or x = -7

Lateena solution is therefore NOT CORRECT because she used a wrong method.
