2. Find a naturalnumber whose square diminished by 84 is equal to thrice of 8 morethan the given number |
|
Answer» Solution:-Let the natural number be 'x'.Therefore, according to the question.x² - 84 = 3(x+8)x² - 84 = 3x + 24x² - 3x - 84 - 24 = 0x² - 3x - 108 = 0x² - 12x + 9x - 108 = 0x(x - 12) + 9(x - 12) = 0(x + 9) (x - 12)⇒ x = -9 and x = 12 since, natural numbers cannot be negative so the required number is 12. |
