Find the Quadratic Equation Given the Roots
(6,-3)
Step 1
x=6 and x=-3 are the two real distinct solutions for the quadratic equation, which means that x-6 and x+3 are the factors of the quadratic equation.
(x-6)(x+3)=0
Step 2
Expand (x-6)(x+3) using the FOIL Method.

Step 3.1.1
Multiply x by x.
x2+x3-6x-63=0
Step 3.1.2
Move 3 to the left of x.
x2+3x-6x-63=0
Step 3.1.3
Multiply -6 by 3.
x2+3x-6x-18=0
x2+3x-6x-18=0
Step 3.2
Subtract 6x from 3x.
x2-3x-18=0
x2-3x-18=0
Step 4
The standard quadratic equation using the given set of solutions {6,-3} is y=x2-3x-18.
y=x2-3x-18
