(x+6)(x+8) = 0
x = -6 or x = -8
I'm just wondering, does the equation happen to be 2x^2 + 14x + 48? That would make more sense with the answer I got.
Small is the blank which is th answer
X+142 =3x+64
subtract x from each side
142 = 2x+64
subtract 64 from each side
142-64 = 2x
78=2x
divide by 2
78/2 = x
x=39
The number is 39
