When writing the equation keep in mind that 7 + x is said as a term that is squared so it has to be squared while it's still together; (7 + x)².
Subtract the 12x^2 first.
5x - 4 = 6
Add the four
5x = 10
Then divide the 5 from both sides
X = 2
Let's call the two numbers a and b. So we know that the difference of the two numbers is 36:
a - b = 36
And we know that their sum is 286:
a + b = 286
We can use either of these equations to solve for one of the variables in terms of the other variable. Let's use the first and solve for a:
a - b = 36
a = 36 + b
Now we plug this into the other equation and solve for b there:
(36 + b) + b = 286
36 + 2b = 286
2b = 250
b = 125
Answer:
25-10=15
