Question

Is this correct? Problem: x(5x-9)=14 My answer: 14, 9/5.

Answer 1

We would first distribute the x and move the 14 to the other side

5x^2 - 9x - 14 = 0

Now we factor

(5x - 14)(x + 1) = 0

and solve

x = 14/5 and -1

I think your method did not work because you did not get all of the terms on one side. I think you left 14 on the other side. We need zero over there on that side.
