The negative solution is x = –1.
Solution:
Let the number be x.
Square of a number = x²
3 times a number = 3x
Difference of square of a number and 4 = 3 times that number
Subtract 3x from both sides of the equation, we get
–3x can be written as x – 4x.
1st bracket have common term x and bracket have –4 common term.
Take common term x + 1 outside.
<em>By zero factor principle, if AB = 0 then A = 0 or B = 0.</em>
x + 1 = 0, x – 4 = 0
x = –1, x = 4
The negative solution is x = –1.
Answer:
i think it is AAAAA
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
11 and 12
Step-by-step explanation:
x=smaller
y=larger
2y=3x-9 x+1=y
2(x+1)=3x-9
2x+2=3x-9
11=x
11+1=y
12=y
Answer:
X <= 4
Step-by-step explanation:
-3x - 24<= -36
Make -3x the subject, by carrying -24 to the other side
Note: Moving -24 to the other side changes to + 24
-3x <= -36 + 24
-3x <= - 12
Minus cancels minus
3x <= 12
Divide both sides by 3,to get the value of x
3x/3 <= 12/3
x <= 12/3
x <= 4
Therefore, x equals to 4
Answer:
7x-1
Step-by-step explanation:
Use commutative property:
(11x-4x) + (-8+7) = 7x-1
