The answer to the question is A
Answer:
I think it's C) 18.5ft^2
it's just an educated guess though I haven't worked on area in a while
You need to factor the numerator and denominator...
(2x^2+4x-2x-4)/(2x^2-2x-2x+2)
(2x(x+2)-2(x+2))/(2x(x-1)-2(x-1))
((2x-2)(x+2))/((2x-2)(x-1)) so the (2x-2)s cancel out leaving
(x+2)/(x-1)
Y=(x+3)(x+5)
0=(x+3)(x+5)
0=x+3
Subtract three on both sides
-3=x
0=x+5
Subtract five on both sides
-5=x
So, -3 and -5 are the zeros of the graphed function.
Hope I helped!
