Solve the following quadratic equasion by factoring?

Question

x^2-2x=35

x=________(use comma to seperate answers as needed)

Answer 1

Hi!

Remember this formula: (a-b)^2 = a^2 -2ab + b^2

First, let's put everything on one side of the equation.

x^2 -2x = 35

x^2 -2x - 35 = 0

Factor.

x^2 -2x - 35 = 0

(x +5) (x-7) = 0

x + 5 = 0

x = -5

x -7 = 0

x = 7

"x" equals -5 and 7.

Good luck and I hoped I helped!

Answer 2

x^2-2x=35

x^2-2x-35=0

(x+5)(x-7)=0

x = -5, 7

Answer 3

-5 , 7

Answer 4

(x+5)(x-7)
