Mathematics

uranmaximum [27]4 years ago
7 0

Step-by-step explanation:

x^2 - 8x = 20

1. Subtract 20 from both sides

x^2 - 8x - 20 = 20 - 20

2. Simplify

x^2 - 8x - 20 = 0

3. Factor the equation out by grouping

(x - 10)(x + 2) = 0

4. Change signs:

x = 10, x = -2

Hope This Helped!!

The lesser number is 30.
It took me about one minute to determine the two numbers by simple logic alone.
30 and 60 are the two numbers.
But, equation-wise, you have ...
30 x 2(30) = 1800
30 x 60 = 1800
