Answer 2

Answer:

x=\frac{25-\sqrt{130}}{3}

Step-by-step explanation:

x_{1,\:2}=\frac{-100\pm \sqrt{100^2-4\left(-6\right)\left(-330\right)}}{2\left(-6\right)}

x_{1,\:2}=\frac{-100\pm \:4\sqrt{130}}{2\left(-6\right)}

x_1=\frac{-100+4\sqrt{130}}{2\left(-6\right)},\:x_2=\frac{-100-4\sqrt{130}}{2\left(-6\right)}

x=\frac{25-\sqrt{130}}{3},\:x=\frac{25+\sqrt{130}}{3}
