The answers are that the number can equal -4 or 1. 

You can find this by setting the number equal to x.

x^2 (The square of a number) + 3x (three times a number) = 4

x^2 + 3x = 4 ---> subtract 4 from each side
x^2 + 3x - 4 = 0

Then you can factor this to find the answers

(x - 4)(x + 1) = 0

Set both equal to 0 and solve.

According to the 2000 Census the population of Canton was 7,720. Holly Spring's population was 3,200. Canton's population increa
qwelly [4]
Canton: 7,720 and increases at a rate of 80 people per year.
Holly Spring: 3,200 and increases at rate of 120 people per year.

Let x be the number of years.

Canton = 7,720 + 80x
Holly Spring = 3,200 + 120x

7,720 + 80x = 3,200 + 120x
80x - 120x = 3,200 - 7720
-40x = -4520
x = -4520 / -40
x = 113

It would take 113 years before the populations are equal.

7,720 + 80x = 3,200 + 120x
7,720 + 80(113) = 3,200 + 120(113)
7,720 + 9,040 = 3,200 + 13,560
16,760 = 16,760
