Answer:
C
Step-by-step explanation:
x^2 + (x+3)^2 = 117
x^2 + x^2+6x+9 =117
2x^2 + 6x - 108 = 0
(2x-12)(x+9)=0
x=-9,6
x cannot be negative therefore, x = 6
Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
40
Step-by-step explanation:
Let n represent the integer. Then the increase can be written as ...
n + (-12) = 28
We can add 12 to both sides of this equation:
n + (-12) + (+12) = 28 +12
n + 0 = 40 . . . . . . -12 and 12 total to zero; 28 and 12 total to 40.
n = 40
The integer is 40.
