Question

The quadratic equation with roots 2 and −3 is:
  1. A
    x² − x − 6 = 0
  2. B
    x² + x − 6 = 0
    Correct
  3. C
    x² − x + 6 = 0
  4. D
    x² + x + 6 = 0

Correct answer

x² + x − 6 = 0

Explanation

Sum = 2+(−3) = −1, product = 2×(−3) = −6. Equation: x² − (sum)x + product = x² + x − 6 = 0.
