Answer:

-6

Step-by-step explanation:

3n = n² - 54

n² - 3n - 54 = 0

n² - 9n + 6n - 54 = 0

n(n - 9) + 6(n - 9) = 0

(n - 9)(n + 6) = 0

n = 9 , -6

hope this helps

3x = x^2 - 54
x^2 - 3x - 54 = 0
(x - 9)(x + 6) = 0

What is the least prime number greater than 50?

uysha [10]

A prime number is a number that has only two factors: 1 and itself
For example, the number 7 has two factors: 1,7 This makes 7 a prime number
Since the number has to be greater than 50, we can go to the next whole number; 51
51 has four factors, 1,3,17,51 This is not our prime number
52 is even so obviously it's not prime because you can divide by two
53 has only two factors; 1,53 This means that its prime and the answer is 53 :)
