Answer:
X=9 and X=5
Step-by-step explanation:
So you want to get one side to equal zero so you can factor and find x. I recommend subtracting 14x and adding 45 to both sides so you don't have to deal with a negative quadratic.
X^2 - 14X +45 = 0
Now you can factor. Your looking for two factors that equal 45 and add to -14
All factors of 45:
1 and 45, 3 and 15, 5 and 9, -1 and -45,
-3 and -15, -5 and -9
So out of those combinations -5 and -9 both multiply to 45 and add up to -14 so these are our common factors
(X-5)(X-9)=0
X-5=0 add 5 to both sides X=5
X-9=0 add 9 to both sides X=9
No 45 is a multiple for 5
The factors are just numbers that can be multiplied to receive the number that is given.
The factors of 24 are: 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 8, 12, 24.
1 × 24 = 24
2 × 12 = 24
3 × 8 = 24
4 × 6 = 24
