Nine times a number subtracted from the square of the number is 36 find the two numbers

x = 12

x = -3

Step-by-step explanation:

Step-1 : Multiply the coefficient of the first term by the constant   1 • -36 = -36

Step-2 : Find two factors of  -36  whose sum equals the coefficient of the middle term, which is   -9 .

     -36    +    1    =    -35

     -18    +    2    =    -16

     -12    +    3    =    -9    That's it

Step-3 : Rewrite the polynomial splitting the middle term using the two factors found in step 2 above,  -12  and  3

                    x2 - 12x + 3x - 36

Step-4 : Add up the first 2 terms, pulling out like factors :

                   x • (x-12)

             Add up the last 2 terms, pulling out common factors :

                   3 • (x-12)

Step-5 : Add up the four terms of step 4 :

                   (x+3)  •  (x-12)

            Which is the desired factorization

answer: no
