SOLUTION: Thank you for your help.Solving the following by Factoring the equations of x^2-6x-16=0, would (x+2)(x-8)=0 or -8x+2x, and would the same apply to 6x^2+42x=0,6x(x+7). Is x2 the sam

Question 140995: Thank you for your help.Solving the following by Factoring the equations of x^2-6x-16=0, would (x+2)(x-8)=0 or -8x+2x, and would the same apply to 6x^2+42x=0,6x(x+7). Is x2 the same as x^2. This site has truly been a big help for me.

would (x+2)(x-8)=0 yes
x=-2, x=8
.
6x(x+7)=0
x=0, x=-7
.
x^2 is the better way to write "x squared".
