The answer is x = 3i and x = -3i. {Where i= √(-1)}
An expression in the form a2 - b2 can be factored into (a - b)(a + b), but you have a2 + b2 so this factors into (a - bi)(a + bi). Check by multiplying the binomials: a2 + abi - abi - (bi)2 the [abi]'s cancel, and i2 = -1, so you have a2 + abi - abi - -b2 which is a2 + b2, so it checks out. In this case, a is x and b is 3.

How do you solve x squared minus ten x plus six equals zero?
It can be solved by using the quadratic equation formula.
How do you solve 2x squared plus x plus 2 equals 0 by completing the square?
It cannot be solved because the discriminant of the quadratic equation is less than zero
How do you solve x squared minus ten x plus sixteen equals zero?
Factor it. (x - 8)(x - 2) x = 2, 8
How do you solve 12x squared plus 9x plus 15 equals 0 with quadratic formula?
It can't be solved because the discriminant of the given quadratic equation is less than zero meaning it has no real roots.
Solve 7 plus p equals 7?
p is obviously zero because any number x plus 0 equals itself.
