X^2 = x + 72 you have a quadratic.
x^2 - x - 72 = 0
(x - 9)*(x + 8) = 0
x = 9 or x = - 8

We have to check this one. One of the answers could be wrong.
9^2 = 9 + 72
81 = 81 This one checks out and is OK.

(-8)^2 = -8 + 72
64 = - 8 + 72 
64 = 64.
Both answers work.

Lunna [17]

Answer: 6.5 feets

Step-by-step explanation:

The model of the spaceship was made to a scale of 1:16. Assuming the same unit of measurement used in the actual spaceship was also used in the model space ship and it was in feets. This means 1 foot on the model spaceship represented 16 feets on the actual spaceship.

In the movie, the ship is supposed to be 104 feet long. Let x be the corresponding length on the model. Therefore,

1:16 = x:104

1/16 = x/104

16x = 104

x = 104/16 = 6.5feets

So the length of the model is 6.5 feets
