84x(x+2) = 84x² + 168x

84x² + 168x = 90 - 13x

84x² +181x - 90 = 0

bhaskara formula

[tex]\frac{-181+-\sqrt{181^{2}- 4.84.(-90) } }{168 } }[/tex]

[tex]\frac{-181+-\sqrt{32.761 +30.240} }{168}[/tex]

[tex]\frac{-181+-251}{168}[/tex]

since its a positive number, we can't use the minus

so, [tex]\frac{70}{168}[/tex]

they're both dividable by 14, so

x = [tex]\frac{5}{12}[/tex] is your answer

hope it helps :)
