    Y = x² - 6x + 5

    0 = x² - 6x + 5

    x = - (-6) + / - √ ((-6) ² - 4 (1) (5))

    2 (1)

    x = 6 + / - √ (36 - 20)

    2

    x = 6 + / - √ (16)

    2

    x = 6 + / - 4

    2

    x = 3 + 2

    x = 3 + 2 x = 3 - 2

    x = 5 x = 1

    y = x² - 6x + 5

    y = (5) ² - 6 (5) + 5

    y = 25 - 30 + 5

    y = - 5 + 5

    y = 0

    (x, y) = (5, 0)

    or

    y = x² - 6x + 5

    y = (1) ² - 6 (1) + 5

    y = 1 - 6 + 5

    y = - 5 + 5

    y = 0

    (x, y) = (1, 0)

    The x-intercept of the problem is equal to 5 or 1.
