    Minus 6x+27 both sides

    x^2-6x-27=0

    factor

    what 2 numbers multiply to get - 27 and add to get - 6

    -9 and 3

    (x-9) (x+3) = 0

    set to zero

    x-9=0

    x=9

    x+3=0

    x=-3

    x=9 and - 3

    C or B is the answer, they are the same, just switched

    if there is some new way of doing it, I don't konw

    I would pick B
