Answer:
13 and -14 satisfy this condition
Step-by-step explanation:
Let's represent that number as x
and the square of x is x^2
So,
x + x^2 = 182
Subtract 182 from both sides
x + x^2 - 182 = 182 - 182
x + x^2 - 182 = 0
rearrange the quadratic equation
x^2 + x -182 = 0
let's use the quadratic formula
or
a = 1, b = 1, c = -182
or
or
or
or
or
13 or - 14
Lets check
13 + 13^2 = 13 + 169
= 182
Also,
-14 + (-14^2) = -14 + 196
= 182
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Because is being multiplied by S, we can divide
from both sides of the equation. This will give us:
÷
But, that looks a bit hectic. Instead of dividing, you can multiply by the reciprocal (which is essentially how to divide fractions). So, instead of ÷
, you get:
×
When multiplying fractions, remember you can just multiply straight across-- numerator x numerator, then denominator x denominator.
By doing that, you get the fraction
cannot be simplified any more, so S=
is your answer :)
