Hi there!
We are given the equation w² + 7w + 12 = 0, and we are told to solve it. Well, we can first take all the factors of 12 -
1 12
2 6
3  4
Now, take the sum of each factor pair -
1, 12 = 13
2, 6 = 8
3, 4 = 7
Find which factor pair adds up to 7, and we can see that 3 and 4 add up to seven, while also having a product of 12. Therefore, since the whole equation has addition signs, we can factor the equation w² + 7w + 12 into (w + 3)(w + 4) = 0. Next, using the Zero Product Property, we can set each term to zero.
w + 3 = 0
w = -3

w + 4 = 0
w = -4
Therefore, the solution to the equation w² + 7w + 12 = 0 is w = -3, -4. Hope this helped and have a great day!

Answer:

20, increased, Bianca

Step-by-step explanation:

First one:

He is shown to have travelled 20km in 1 hour, so that's 20km/h.

Second:

The gradient is how steep the curve is, the steeper the faster the person is travelling. Due to the fact Bianca's curve becomes steeper, it shows she is travelling faster. Therefore, her running speed increases.

Third:

Bianca's line hits 50km before Alberto, so therefore she finished first.

Let me know if this makes sense, hope it helped! :D
