Question

f(x)=x^2+4x-12
determine the zeros

Answer 1

f(x) = (x-2)*(x+6), x = 2 or -6

Answer 2

ok i am so bad at factoring, how exactly did you do
this

Answer 3

if its probably nice, then it is two factors of 12 as the a's and b's of the form (x+a)*(x+b). Since it is an x^2 out front, it will be the two factors that add up to 4, -2+6 = 4

Answer 4

oh?! ok well I have a few more a little more difficult can you help? I can start a new question

Answer 5

i gtg, sorry
