\(\large \begin{align} \color{black}{hint:\\~\\x^3 + 2x^2 – 9x – 18 \hspace{.33em}\\~\\
=x^2(x + 2)– 9(x + 2) \hspace{.33em}\\~\\

What do I do with that hint?

good question
OpenStudy (mathmath333):
\(\large \begin{align} \color{black}{x^3 + 2x^2 – 9x – 18 \hspace{.33em}\\~\\
=x^2(x + 2)– 9(x + 2) \hspace{.33em}\\~\\
=(x^2-9)(x + 2) \hspace{.33em}\\~\\
=(x^2-3^2)(x + 2) \hspace{.33em}\\~\\
=(x-3)(x+3)(x + 2) \hspace{.33em}\\~\\
}\end{align}\)

still need help
OpenStudy (anonymous):
x=-3,3,2 are the zeroes
OpenStudy (anonymous):
THank you. So the ral zero's of the function are 3, -3, 2.
