A negative number is 42 less than it’s square.

Mathematics
1 answer:
marissa [1.9K]2 years ago
4 0

Answer:

Let x = the number

A negative number is 42 less than its square ⇒

x = x2 - 42

x2 - x - 42 = 0

(x - 7)(x + 6) = 0

x = 7 or -6

But since it is given that x is negative, the final answer is x = -6.

1 - 3x = 3x + 1 solve for x
lakkis [162]

Answer: x = 0

Step-by-step explanation:

1 - 3x = 3x + 1

then add 3x on both sides

1 = 6x + 1

then subtract 1 on both sides

0 = 6x

then divide by 6 on both sides

0 = x

so x = 0
