Quadratics by taking square roots

Find the zeros of the function. Write the smaller solution first, and the larger solution second.
f(x)=(x+6)2−49f(x) = (x + 6)^2 - 49
smaller x=\text{smaller }x =
  • Your answer should be
  • an integer, like 66
  • a simplified proper fraction, like 3/53/5
  • a simplified improper fraction, like 7/47/4
  • a mixed number, like 1 3/41\ 3/4
  • an exact decimal, like 0.750.75
  • a multiple of pi, like 12 pi12\ \text{pi} or 2/3 pi2/3\ \text{pi}
larger x=\text{larger } x =
