Word problem
When 5 is added to a certain number, and also taken from that number, the product of the result is 75. find that number
Let x be the number. Then:
(x-5)(x+5) = 75
x2 - 25 = 75
x2 = 100
x = 10.
(x = -10 is also a solution)
sorry don't understand "the product of the result is 75".to have a product you need at least 2 numbers
