1. To solve this exercise, we must pass the -11x from the right member to the left member and equaling to zero, as shown below:

x^2+24+11x=0

2. We order the polynomial:

x^2+11x+24=0

3. We can find the roots of the equation by factoring it or by the resolver:

(-b ± √ (b^2-4ac))/2a

4. If we factor the quadratic equation, we have:

(x+8)(x+3)

The roots of the equation are:

x1 = -8

x2 = -3
