Sorry, I didn't quite understand the question here is a clear one, it was made by me personally in the geo-gebra application
So take 112 and multiply it by 7, 7x112 = 784.
First, let's construct an algebraic equation to formally find the answer:
Let x represent (the value of) the unknown number.
x²= 5x + 24 --- This equation shows that the (positive) number's square equals 24 more than 5 times the number.
Now we can solve for x (the number):
x² = 5x + 24
x² - 5x - 24 = 0
(x + 3)(x - 8) = 0
x = -3, 8
Therefore, this means that x (the number ) can be either -3 OR 8. Both will satisfy the description.
Hope this helps!
