Question

The value of (x2-x-42)/(x-7) is

Answer 1

Answer:

$\frac{ {x}^{2} - x - 42}{(x - 7)} \\ = \frac{ {x}^{2} - 7x + 6x - 42 }{(x - 7)} \\ = \frac{x(x - 7) + 6(x - 7)}{(x - 7)} \\ =\frac{(x +6 )(x -7)}{(x - 7)} \\ =x + 6$

Answer 2

Answer:

(X²-X-42)/(X-7)

=>(X²-7X+6X-42)/(X-7)

=> (X+6)(X-7)/X-7

ANSWER IS (X+6)(X-7)/X-7

=> ANSWER = X+6 .

=>X=-6 IS THE ANSWER REQUIRED .
