Question

(i) Factorise then solve the equation x2 + 2x − 24 = 0. Help????

Answer 1

Again step by step would be spiffing lol

Answer 2

2x + 2x - 24 =0
4x -24 =0
+24 +24
4x = 24
Divide by 4.
x= 6

Answer 3

oh i'm such a twit can't believe i didn't get that it's cause it wants me to factorise it which confused me

Answer 4

That "factorise" is a fancy word which I'd replace by "factor" in explaining this problem. With that " s " in the spelling of "factorise," I'm wondering whether this is British English.
