I think of a number. I multiply it by 7. I add 12. The result is 40. What is the number I am thinking of?

i think it's ф or x=6,-6

step-by-step explanation:

-x^2=-36

x^2=-36

ф

or

if you mean by : -(x^2)=-36

it'll be: x^2=36

x=6,x=-6

hope it'll ! have a good day!

you for asking!

tube or goog would be a great resource to with that question
