Annabel Thompson · Answer 1

X^2 - 5x = 2x - 6

x^2 - 5x - 2x + 6 = 0

x^2 - 7x + 6 = 0

(x - 6) (x - 1) = 0

x - 6 = 0

x = 6

x - 1 = 0

x = 1

solutions are : x = 6 or x = 1

Summer Calhoun · Answer 2

Xsquared - 5x = 2x-6

x^2 - 5x - 2x + 6 = 0

x^2 - 7x + 6 = 0

(x - 6) (x-1) = 0

x-6 = 0, x = 6

x - 1 = 0, x = 1

answer

solutions

x = 1 and x = 6
