Move terms, set to zero:
Now, let's move all terms to one side to set the equation to zero.
\newline

2x^2 - 6x - x^2 + 9 = 0

Factor quadratic equation:
We can factor the quadratic equation.
\newline
(

)
(
x
−
3
)
=
0
(x - 3)(x - 3) = 0
(

)
(
x

3
)
=
0
\newline
x
−
3
=
0
x - 3 = 0
x
−
3
=
0
or
x
−
3
=
0
x - 3 = 0
x
−
3
=
0
Solve for x:
Solve for x in both equations.
x
=
3
x = 3
x
=
3
or
x
=
3
x = 3
x
=
3
