Solve for x. Enter the solutions from least to greatest.
X^2-5x-14=0
To solve for x, we can use the quadratic formula:
x = (-(-5) ± √((-5)^2 - 4*1*(-14))) / 2*1
x = (5 ± √(25 + 56)) / 2
x = (5 ± √81) / 2
x = (5 ± 9) / 2
So, the two solutions are:
x = (5 + 9) / 2 = 14 / 2 = 7
x = (5 - 9) / 2 = -4 / 2 = -2
Therefore, the solutions from least to greatest are -2, 7.
