@Jessielovesyou4998 this one :)

Answer 3

This is really hard. Basically what you have to do is continuously plug in numbers until you come up with the same number for both equations.

Answer 4

Do you know exactly which numbers i need to do that with?

Answer 5

I just tried picking random numbers and substituting them in for x

Answer 6

\(x^2-70x+3341=50x+65
\\x^2-120x+3276=0\)
234*14 is a relevant factor of 3276
