Question

What number when multiplied by itself is 11 greater than the preceding number when it is multiplied by itself

Answer 1

Answer:

5*5=25

6*6=36

36-25=11

so the answer is 6.

Answer 2

Answer: 5 and 6

Step-by-step explanation:

X^2 - 11 = (X-1)^2

X^2 - 11 = X^2-2X+1

X^2 - X^2 + 2X = 11+1

2X = 12

X = 6

The preceding number is 5

(6)(6)=36 and (5)(5)=25

36-25=11
