If you want to check if your answer is correct, expanding it all out will help!

(x-6)(x+2)=0 <-- Use FOIL tactic 

x²+2x-6x-12=0

x²-4x-12=0 

As you can see, this is identical to the initial equation given. The x values would be 6 and -2, as seen from the factored equation. 

Hope I helped :)

Solutions of 3x+2y=4 and 6x+4y=8
Alecsey [184]

Answer:

Infinite solutions

Step-by-step explanation:

1) First, you can solve this easily by elimination. Multiply the first equation by -2 in order to cancel out terms when adding to the second equation.

2) Then, add the new set of equations together. However, everything cancels out, bringing us to 0 = 0. This means that the lines the equations make must be the same. Thus, all real numbers must make this equation true, meaning that there are infinite solutions.

B isn't it, 10+40=50*2=100

C ain't it either 49+1=50*2=100

D is the answer 50+50=100*2=200
