Magdalena Moses · Answer 1

x2 + 10x = 24

x2 + 10x - 24 = 0

(x - 2) (x+12) = 0

x - 2 = 0 so x = 2

x + 12 = 0 so x = - 12

answer: solutions are x = - 12 and x = 2

Aldo Mcclure · Answer 2

The first x would equal 2 and the second x would equal 2 because when you multiply 2x2=+10x2=24 and I believe that would be your answer.
