We want to verify that x² + x - 12 = (x - 3)(x + 4)

We can prove this by factoring the left side and showing that it is equal to the Right side.

We should find factors of -12 that sum to +1.
-12 = 1 x -12   Sum = 1 - 12 = -11    No
-12 = 2 x -6    Sum = 2 - 6 = -4    No
-12 = 3 x -4    Sum = 3 - 4 = -1     No
-12 = 4 x -3    Sum = 4 - 3 = 1      Yes

Therefore
x² + x - 12 = (x - 3)(x + 4) which is equal to the Right side.

Latisha is correct because
4(-3) = -12, and
-3 + 4 = 1

What's the difference between combinations and permutations?
Stells [14]

Answer:

The difference between combinations and permutations is that in permutations, the order matters, while it doesn't with combinations. For example, if you are given 5 numbers (1,2,3,4,5) and you have to determine how many 3 digit numbers you can make, that is a permutation question because 123, 231, 321, etc. are all different  numbers. If, for example, we have to find how many ways three people can be chosen out of a group of 5, that is a combination question and you must use the combination formula as the order of the three people does not matter. Other than the order, combinations and permutations are the same
