X²=14x-45 step by step please

X=9 and X=5

Step-by-step explanation:

So you want to get one side to equal zero so you can factor and find x. I recommend subtracting 14x and adding 45 to both sides so you don't have to deal with a negative quadratic.

X^2 - 14X +45 = 0

Now you can factor. Your looking for two factors that equal 45 and add to -14

All factors of 45:

1 and 45, 3 and 15, 5 and 9, -1 and -45,

-3 and -15, -5 and -9

So out of those combinations -5 and -9 both multiply to 45 and add up to -14 so these are our common factors

(X-5)(X-9)=0

X-5=0 add 5 to both sides X=5

X-9=0 add 9 to both sides X=9
