If r and s represent the solutions of the equation below and r>s, what is the value of the difference r-s? (3x+14)x=5

16/3

Step-by-step explanation:

(3x + 14)x = 5

3x² + 14x = 5

3x² + 14x - 5 = 0

3x² + 15x - x - 5 = 0

3x(x + 5) - 1(x + 5) = 0

(3x - 1)(x + 5) = 0

x = 1/3 & -5

Here,

r = 1/3

s = -5

r - s

1/3 - (-5)

1/3 + 5

1 + 15/3

16/3
