Answer:

$x^{2}$ - x - 24 = 0

a = 1

b = 1

c = -24

Step-by-step explanation:

(x + 4)(x - 5) = 4

x(x - 5) = $x^{2}$ - 5x

4(x - 5) = 4x - 20

$x^{2}$ - 5x + 4x - 20 = 4

$x^{2}$ - x - 20 = 4

$x^{2}$ - x - 20 - 4 = 0

$x^{2}$ - x - 24 = 0

a = 1

b = 1

c = -24

4 less than half a number is equal to 2 more than the number

xxMikexx [17]

Answer:

$-12$

Step-by-step explanation:

Let that number be $x$ . We can build an equation, and solve for $x$ .

$4$ less than half of $x$ is $x/2-4$ .

$2$ more than $x$ is $x+2$ .

We are given that the two quantities are equal, so we have that $x/2-4=x+2$ .

Adding $4$ to both sides gives $x/2=x+6$ .

Multiplying both sides by $2$ gives $x=2(x+6)=2x+12$ .

Subtracting $2x$ from both sides gives $-x=12$ .

Multiplying both sides by $-1$ gives $x=-12$ .

So, the number is $\boxed{-12}$ and we're done!

The check is left as an exercise to the reader.
