Adding 42 to a given positive number gives the same result as squaring the number. Find the number

A.

14

B.

13

C.

7

D.

6

Correct answer is C

Let the given positive number be x

Then 4 + x = x2

0 = x2 - x - 42

or x2 - x - 42 = 0

x2 - 7x + 6x - 42 = 0

x(x - 7) + 6(x - 7) = 0

= (x + 6)(x - 7) = 0

x = -6 or x = 7

Hence, x = 7
