Answer:
7, 12
Step-by-step explanation:
( n-9)^2 = n-3
Foil the right
n^2 -18n +81 = n-3
Subtract n from each side
n^2 -19n +81 =-3
Add 3 to each side
n^2 -19n +84 = 0
Factor
What 2 numbers multiply to 84 and add to -19
-12*-7 = 84
-12+-7 = -19
( n-7) (n-12) =0
Using the zero product property
n-7 =0 n-12= 0
n=7 n=12
