x2 + 9 = 10x
x2 - 10x + 9 = 0.
(x - 9)(x - 1) = 0.
Therefore, x = 1 or 9.

x2+24x+144 = 9 x2+24x+144-9 = 0 x2+24x+135 = 0 (x+9)(x+15) = 0 x = -9 or x = -15
x2 + 7x + 9 = 3 ∴ x2 + 7x + 6 = 0 ∴ (x + 6)(x + 1) = 0 ∴ x ∈ {-6, -1}
x2 + 6x + 9 = 81 x2 + 6x = 72 x2 + 6x - 72 = 0 (x+12)(x-6) = 0 x= -12, 6 (two solutions)
-171 = 19x so x = -9
