For what values of x is x2-36=5x true?<br> 0 -9 and 4<br> 04 and 9<br> 4 and -9<br> 09 and 4

ipn [44]

Answer:

x = - 4 and x = 9

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

x² - 36 = 5x ( subtract 5x from both sides )

x² - 5x - 36 = 0

Consider the factors of the constant term (- 36) which sum to give the coefficient of the x- term (- 5)

The factors are - 9 and + 4, since

- 9 × 4 = - 36 and - 9 + 4 = - 5, thus

(x - 9)(x + 4) = 0

Equate each factor to zero and solve for x

x - 9 = 0 ⇒ x = 9

x + 4 = 0 ⇒ x = - 4

djyliett [7]

Answer: 231

<u>Explanation:</u>

Liwen Celina

5x 6x

5x - 21 = $(\frac{2}{3})$ 6x

5x - 21 = 4x

<u>-4x +21</u> <u>-4x +21 </u>

x = 21

Liwen: 5x = 5(21) = 105

Celina: 6x = 6(21) =<u> 126</u>
