To solve the equation ( x^2 - x - 6 = 0 ), you can factor it. Look for two numbers that multiply to -6 and add to -1; these numbers are -3 and 2. Thus, you can factor the equation as ( (x - 3)(x + 2) = 0 ). Setting each factor to zero gives you the solutions: ( x = 3 ) and ( x = -2 ).

What is X squared plus 6x minus 55?

Without knowing what "x" is, we cannot say what the answer will be. And without knowing the answer, we cannot solve for "x". Set x at zero, for example. Zero squared is zero, plus 6 time zero which is zero, minus 55. Your answer is then -55. Set x at one, for example. One squared is one, plus 6 times 1 which is six, minus 55. Your answer is then -48. Etc.
