x2-6x=2(5x-14)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

x^2 - 6x = 10x - 28 then x^2 - 6x + 10x + 28 = 0 then x^2 + 4x + 28 = 0 then using the formula we will get x = -2

OpenStudy (anonymous):

answer is 14

OpenStudy (anonymous):

using a calculator i got the answer to be -2 ,, are you sure of that answer?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

OpenStudy (anonymous):

sorry my mistake , x^2 - 6x = 10x - 28 then x^2 - 6x - 10x + 28 = 0 then x^2 + 16x + 28 = 0 then using the formula we will get x = 14

OpenStudy (anonymous):

yes

OpenStudy (anonymous):

it is the same as before just a mistake in the sign of the 10x
