(x -3) * (x +1) * <span>(x -4) * (x -2) = 0
x = 3
x = -1
x = 4
x = 2
All four roots are real numbers and so the graph crosses the x-axis four times. The graph of the equation would resemble a "W".

1. Take the two x-axis intersections.
For Q 31 it is:
x = -4 and x = 0
2. Reorganise the previous equations
x +4 = 0 and x = 0
3. Put the x side in brackets
x(x+4)
4. Done

Q 32
x = -1
x = 5
x + 1 = 0
x - 5 = 0
(x+1)(x-5)
The answer is -6 skskksla
