Answer:
X=9 and X=5
Step-by-step explanation:
So you want to get one side to equal zero so you can factor and find x. I recommend subtracting 14x and adding 45 to both sides so you don't have to deal with a negative quadratic.
X^2 - 14X +45 = 0
Now you can factor. Your looking for two factors that equal 45 and add to -14
All factors of 45:
1 and 45, 3 and 15, 5 and 9, -1 and -45,
-3 and -15, -5 and -9
So out of those combinations -5 and -9 both multiply to 45 and add up to -14 so these are our common factors
(X-5)(X-9)=0
X-5=0 add 5 to both sides X=5
X-9=0 add 9 to both sides X=9
Multiply the first equation with (-1)
you should get this
-6r + 3t = -6
6r + 8t = -16
start to eliminate
11t = -22
divide by 11
t = -2
substitute
6r - 3(-2) = 6
6r + 6 = 6
6r = 6 - 6
6r = 0
r=0
They are both equivalent to 1, so they are equal.
240, you just add a zero to 24, I don't know what you mean by zero the hero of 4 square, hope this helps!
