Q. Solve for x x . Enter the solutions from least to greatest.\newlinex2x90=0 lesser x= greater x= \begin{array}{l} x^{2}-x-90=0 \\ \text { lesser } x=\square \\ \text { greater } x=\square \end{array}
  1. Identify Quadratic Equation: Identify the quadratic equation to solve.\newlineThe given quadratic equation is x2x90=0x^2 - x - 90 = 0. We need to find two numbers that multiply to 90-90 and add up to 1-1, the coefficient of xx.
  2. Factor the Equation: Factor the quadratic equation.\newlineTo factor x2x90=0x^2 - x - 90 = 0, we look for two numbers that multiply to 90-90 and add to 1-1. The numbers 10-10 and 99 satisfy these conditions because 10×9=90-10 \times 9 = -90 and 10+9=1-10 + 9 = -1.\newlineSo, we can write the equation as (x10)(x+9)=0(x - 10)(x + 9) = 0.
  3. Solve for x: Solve for x using the zero product property.\newlineIf (x10)(x+9)=0(x - 10)(x + 9) = 0, then either x10=0x - 10 = 0 or x+9=0x + 9 = 0.\newlineSolving x10=0x - 10 = 0 gives us x=10x = 10.\newlineSolving x+9=0x + 9 = 0 gives us x=9x = -9.
  4. Write Solutions in Ascending Order: Write the solutions in ascending order.\newlineThe lesser value of xx is 9-9, and the greater value of xx is 1010.
