Check to see if this equation: x^2+3x+2x+6 has rational roots using the Rational Root Theorem.

we solved this already and saw that the roots were \(-2\) and \(-3\) which are integers, and are therefore rational

The previous question wasn't the same. How did you get -2 and -3? @satellite73

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Oh I see what you did there okay
