Answer:
x = -4
Step-by-step explanation:
f(x) = x² - 16
This is the difference of squares
which factors as
f(x) = (x - 4)(x + 4)
Therefor the negative zero is
x = -4
This works out beautifully. You COULD use long division here, but since your numerator is a quadratic, your first instinct should be to try and factor it. If you factor it, it works out to be (x - 3)(x + 2). Now it just so happens that when you do that, the (x - 3) in the numerator will cancel with the (x - 3) in the denominator leaving you with one sad and lonely (x + 2) as your answer.

Answer:
she would walk at least those 62 miles
Step-by-step explanation:
We are told that in the 3 days of the walk to fight cancer, Mary breaks the 62 mile barrier every day, that is to say that every day she travels 62 miles or more.
You ask us how much she walks in a single day, considering what the statement that goes at least 62 miles each day says, she would walk at least those 62 miles on a normal day.
