The product of a positive number and 16 more than seven times the number is 105.
\n" ); document.write( "let n = \"a number\"
\n" ); document.write( "write an equation for exactly what it says
\n" ); document.write( "n * (7n+16) = 105
\n" ); document.write( "7n^2 + 16n = 105
\n" ); document.write( "A quadratic equation
\n" ); document.write( "7n^2 + 16n - 105 = 0
\n" ); document.write( "using the quadratic formula a=7; b=16; c=-105
\n" ); document.write( "I got a positive decimal solution
\n" ); document.write( "n = 2.89522686
\n" ); document.write( ":
\n" ); document.write( ";
\n" ); document.write( "lets see if that disgusting number works in the original
\n" ); document.write( "2.895(7(2.895 + 16) =
\n" ); document.write( "2.895(36.2665) = 104.99 ~ 105
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" );
