For many pointsish . the sum of two numbers is 21. the second number is six times the first number. work out the two numbers. write your answers on one line.

x will represent the first unknow number

6x will represent the second number

the two numbers together will equal 21

6x + x = 21  combine like terms

7x =21  divide both sides by 7

x =3

Hope that helps.

brainliest is always appreciated.

answer: standard form is ax^2 + bx + c = 0

step-by-step explanation:

standard form is ax^2 + bx + c = 0

(2x + 1)(x - 2) = 0

distribute to get into standard form

2x^2 - 4x + x - 2 = 0

2x^2 - 3x - 2 = 0

a = 2, b= -3, c = -2

a is your answer
