    Answer: 6 or-7

    Step-by-step explanation:

    X2+x-30=12

    Collect like terms

    X2+x-30-12=0

    X2+x-42=0

    Factorise

    Factors of - 42 that will give + x is + 7&-6

    Substitute

    X2+7x-6x-42=0

    X (x+7) - 6 (x+7) = 0

    (X-6) (x+7) = 0

    X-6=0

    X=6 or

    X+7=0

    X = - 7

    Therefore x=6 or - 7

    X=6, X=-7

    Step-by-step explanation:

    X^2+X-30=12

    X^2+X-30-12=12-12-Subtract 12 from both sides

    a=1 b=1 c=-30 - then place into the quadratic formula and you will get the answers.
