Answer: [tex]x^{2} +4x - 12 = 0[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the quadratic equation when the roots are given , we will use the formula:

[tex]x^{2} -[/tex] sum of roots[tex](x)[/tex] + product of roots = 0

sum of roots = -6 + 2 = -4

product of roots = -6(2) = -12

substituting into the formula, we have

[tex]x^{2} - (-4) +(-12) = 0[/tex]

[tex]x^{2} +4x - 12 = 0[/tex]
