Answer 1

Answer:

On edge it's C

Step-by-step explanation:

x= 6 ±$\sqrt{23} i$

Answer 2

Value of x is: $x=6\pm\sqrt{23}i$

Option B is correct option.

Step-by-step explanation:

We need to solve the equation $x^2-12x+59=0$ and find value of x.

Using quadratic formula:

$x=\frac{-b\pm\sqrt{b^2-4ac}}{2a}$

Putting values of a, b and c and finding the value of x

a=1, b=-12 and c=59

$x=\frac{-b\pm\sqrt{b^2-4ac}}{2a}\\x=\frac{-(-12)\pm\sqrt{(-12)^2-4(1)(59)}}{2(1)}\\x=\frac{12\pm\sqrt{144-236}}{2}\\x=\frac{12\pm\sqrt{-92}}{2}\\x=\frac{12\pm\sqrt{92}i}{2}\\We\,\,know\,\sqrt{-1} \,\,is\,\,i\\x=\frac{12\pm2\sqrt{23}i}{2}\\x=\frac{2(6\pm\sqrt{23}i)}{2}\\x=6\pm\sqrt{23}i$

So, value of x is: $x=6\pm\sqrt{23}i$

Option B is correct option.
