Answer:
x would equal -11 or 13
Step-by-step Explanation:
x(x - 2) - 143 = 0
x^2 - 2x - 143 = 0
-2x + x^2 = 143
-143 + (-2x) + x^2 = 0
(x - 13)(x + 11)
x - 13 = 0
Add 13 to both sides
x = 13
x + 11 = 0
Subtract 11 from both sides
x = -11
0.2 in its simplest form as a fraction can be 2/10
reduced to 1/5
