find the solution set for this equation.. b^2+12b=0

OpenStudy (anonymous):

could you define solution set for me? i know i can solve this, but im not quite sure what you are looking for when you say solution set

OpenStudy (anonymous):

a solution set is the set of values that satisfy a given set of equations or inequalities.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

b(b-12)=0, b=0,12

OpenStudy (anonymous):

wrong!!

OpenStudy (anonymous):

make taht negate 12 lol

OpenStudy (anonymous):

wait whats the question again?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

im pretty sure its 0, -12, try these values in the equation they both = 0.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

ok, so basically the answers to the problem. and i got the same answers as @Lost_in_Translation so i belive they should be correct

OpenStudy (anonymous):

The solutions to this answer are:\[x=-12\] and \[x=0\]

OpenStudy (anonymous):
