X*(x-1) = 56
To solve for X, we need to expand the left side of the equation:
X x - X 1 = 56
Now we simplify:
X^2 - X = 56
Next, we set the equation equal to 0:
X^2 - X - 56 = 0
Now, we can factor the quadratic equation:
(X - 8)(X + 7) = 0
Setting each factor to zero gives us the possible solutions for X:
X - 8 = 0 or X + 7 = 0
X = 8 or X = -7
Therefore, the solutions for X are X = 8 and X = -7.
