Question

Select ALL values of c that will make the following equation true.

X^2 - 5x = 24

A. X = -3
B. X = 0
C. X = 4
D. X = 8
E. X = 12

Answer 1

A: x = -3, D: x = 8

Explanation:

First you must subtract 24 from both sides of the equation.

You should end up with
`x^2-5x-24=0`

Next you must factor the left side of the equation:

`(x+3)(x-8)=0`

Now, set each of the factors equal to zero:

`x+3=0` Subtract 3 from both sides of the equation.

`x-8=0` Add 8 to both sides of the equation.

You will then get x = -3 and x = 8.

Answer 2

Answer: x=12 and x=4 I hope this is correct sorry if it isn’t
