The number is x
it is negative
the square is 28 more than 3 times itself
x²=28+3x
minus (28+3x)
x²-3x-28=0
factor
(x-7)(x+4)=0
set to zero
x-7=0
x=7
this is not the answer because we were told the number was negative
x+4=0
x=-4
correct
the number is -4
test
(-4)²=28+3(-4)
16=28-12
16=16
check
the number is -4

Hours read by Miss Allen
The question is incomplete, as the hours read by each student is not given.
To solve this, I will assume that the longest hours read by a student is x.
So, the expression for Miss Allen will be:

Assume that 
The expression becomes

Take LCM and solve


Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
You have not provided the choices.
Factor each term into powers of primes and variables:
56x = 2³·7x
40y = 2³·5y
48z = 2⁴·3z
Greatest common factor = 2³ = 8
56x + 40y - 48z = 8(7x + 5y - 6z)
