Expressions are mathematical statements without the equation sign
The possible integer values of q, r, and z are 3, -4 and -1
<h3>How to determine the values of the integers</h3>The expressions are given as:
x^2 + zx - 12
(x + q)(x + r)
Both expressions are equal.
So, we have:
Expand
By comparison, we have:
Assume that q = 3.
So, we have:
Divide by 3
Recall that:
So, we have:
Hence, the possible integer values of q, r, and z are 3, -4 and -1
