Let me take a picture

Answer 6

Factor it.

Answer 7

Can you do that?

That's how it looks like

Answer 10

two things to do when factoring.

1. look at the last term your C-term
2. Then determine what two factors of the C term when added give you the B term.
3. be sure to look at the signs also.

Answer 11

I got 191

Answer 12

That's wrong right?

Answer 13

To solve this problem, were going to have to factor. We need to look at the constant term (3) and find factors of the contrast term that add up to 4.
3 can be factored only as 3 and 1. \[3 + 1 = 4\]

Answer 14

So you can factor in the following way: \[(x+3)(x+1) = 0\]
Now we apply the Zero Product Property. This property states that if the whole things is 0, if (x+3)(x+1) is equal to 0, then (x+3) will equal 0, or (x+1) equals 0.

Answer 15

x=-3 or x=-1 ?

Answer 16

(x+3) is equal to 0 when x itself is equal to -3 (x = -3). This is because -3 + 3 = 0.
Or x is equal to -1 would be equal to 0 because -1 + 1 = 0. So there are two possible answers: \[x = -3 ~ or ~ x= -1\]

Answer 17

Yes, that is correct @Wendy.Ivette11714
