Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

1) x² + 6x + 11 = 0

a = coefficient of x² = 1

b = coefficient of x = 6

c = Constant = 11

Roots = (-b ± √b² - 4ac)/2a

[tex]D = \sqrt{b^{2}-4ac}\\\\=\sqrt{6^{2}-4*1*11}\\\\=\sqrt{36-44}\\\\=\sqrt{-8}\\\\=\sqrt{8i^{2}}\\\\ = 2i\sqrt{2}[/tex]

Roots = [tex]\dfrac{-6 \± 2i\sqrt{2}}{2}\\[/tex]

          [tex]= \dfrac{2(-3 \± i\sqrt{2})}{2}\\\\=-3 \± i\sqrt{2}[/tex]

2) 2x² - 16x = 50

Divide the whole equation by 2

x² - 8x = 25

Divide the coefficient of x  (i. e 8 ) by 2 = 8/2 = 4, Now add 4 to both sides of the equation

x² - 8x + 4 = 25 + 4

x² - 2*4*x + 2² = 29

(x - 2)² = 29

Take square root both side

[tex]x - 2 = \± \sqrt{29}\\\\x = 2 \± \sqrt{29}[/tex]
