I'm not for sure but it won't hurt to try it.
Answer: 56-(7+5)
Step-by-step explanation:
You can find the amount of muffins left over by adding up the amount of muffins that were eaten and subtracting them from the original amount of blueberry muffins, so the answer is 56-(7+5).
(7+5 is in parentheses because if not, you would have 56-7+5 and get 54).
17+x=57.
So, subtract 17 from both sides
X=40
So I'm going to assume that this question is asking for <u>non extraneous solutions</u>, or solutions that are found in the equation <em>and</em> are valid solutions when plugged back into the equation. So firstly, subtract 2 on both sides of the equation:

Next, square both sides:

Next, subtract x and add 2 to both sides of the equation:

Now we are going to be factoring by grouping to find the solution(s). Firstly, what two terms have a product of 6x^2 and a sum of -5x? That would be -3x and -2x. Replace -5x with -2x - 3x:

Next, factor x^2 - 2x and -3x + 6 separately. Make sure that they have the same quantity on the inside of the parentheses:

Now you can rewrite the equation as 
Now, apply the Zero Product Property and solve for x as such:

Now, it may appear that the answer is C, however we need to plug the numbers back into the original equation to see if they are true as such:

Since both solutions hold true when x = 2 and x = 3, <u>your answer is C. x = 2 or x = 3.</u>

So I got
