Solve x² - 39x + 74 = 0

You have come to the correct place if you are looking to solve the quadratic equation x squared minus 39x plus 74 equals 0, also known as x² - 39x + 74 = 0. Below, we walk you through how to find the answer.

To find the two possible answers to x^2 - 39x + 74 = 0, we will start by rewriting the equation in factored form. Then, we will create two separate equations that we can use to solve x² - 39x + 74 = 0.

Below is x squared minus 39x plus 74 in factored form. As you can see, x² - 39x + 74 has been grouped into two sets of parentheses.

(x - 37)(x - 2)

Next, we set each set of parentheses equal to 0 and solve for x to get the two answers to x^2 - 39x + 74 = 0.

(x - 37) = 0
x₁ = 37

(x - 2) = 0
x₂ = 2
