Call the number : x
(1/3)x + 5 = x-6
=> (1/3)x + 5 - (x-6) = 0
=> (1/3)x + 5 - x + 6 = 0
Group (1/3)x with -x, 5 with 6
=> [(1/3)x - x] + (5+6) = 0
=> (-2/3)x + 11 = 0
=> (-2/3)x = -11
=> x = -11 : (-2/3) = 33/2.
Recheck : 1/3 x 33/2 + 5 = 33/6 + 5 = 63/6 = 21/2
33/2 - 21/2 = 12/2 = 6 (21/2 is 6 less than 33/2, satisfied.)

Answer:
x=-5, x=9
Step-by-step explanation:
we know that
The formula to solve a quadratic equation of the form
is equal to
in this problem we have
equate to zero
so
substitute in the formula
therefore
The solutions are x=-5, x=9
Answer:
14
Step-by-step explanation:
5x + x+96 = 180
6x+96 = 180
6x=84
x= 14
The first answer is the correct one.
It is the only one that keeps all the ratios from the first triangle on the top and the 2nd triangle on the bottom. the other three answers keep swapping top and bottom positions.
