Answer: 0, 4, -9

Set the equation equal to zero.

x(x - 4)(x + 9) = 0

Solve for x by setting each factor equal to zero.

The factors in the equation are x, (x - 4), and (x + 9).

x = 0

(x - 4) = 0

x = 4

(x + 9) = 0

x = -9

The zeros of the function are 0, 4, and -9.

BRAINLIEST ANSWER Twice the difference of a number and 4 is equal to three times the sum of the number and 6. Find the number.

Lubov Fominskaja [6]

Answer: -26

Step-by-step explanation:

2(n - 4)= 3(n + 6)

2n -8 = 3n + 18

+8 +8

2n = 3n + 26

-3 -3

-1n = 26

n= -26

The difference between two numbers is 15. If 8 is added to twice the greater number, the result is 4 less than 3 times the lesse

yuradex [85]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Let $x$ be the greater number and $y$ be the smaller number. We know that their difference is 15, so we have

$x-y=15$

Then, we have the following information: if we add twice the greater (2x) and 8 (2x+8), the result is 3 times the lesser (3y) minus four (3y-4). So, we have

$2x+8 = 3y-4 \iff 2x-3y = -12$

So, we have the follwing system:

$\begin{cases} x-y=15\\2x-3y = -12\end{cases}$

From the first equation, we can derive $x = y+15$ , and substitute this expression in the second equation to get

$2(y+15)-3y = -12 \iff 2y + 30 -3y = -12 \iff -y = -42 \iff y = 42$

Substitute this value for y in the first equation to get

$x-42=15 \iff x=15+42 \iff x = 57$
