Answer:
The factored form of the equation is (x + 4)(x – 6) = 0.
Step-by-step explanation:
(x – 4)(x + 2) = 16
Foil the left side
x^2 +2x-4x-8 =16
Combine like terms
x^2 -2x-8 = 16
Subtract 16 from each side
x^2 -2x-8-16 =16-16
x^2 -2x-24 =0
Factor the left hand side
What two numbers multiply to -24 and add to -2
-6*4 =-24
-6+4 = -2
(x-6) (x+4) =0
Solving using the zero product property
x-6 =0 x+4=0
x=6 x=-4
It is already simplified? no more possible steps can be done
Inequalities and equations are alike in that they both involve two sides of a sign (whether it is an equal sign or an inequality sign) being compared. For example, both y = x + 2 and y > x + 2 are just ways of comparing the values of x and y.
They are different in that equations give a set number of definite answers (such as x = 2 and y = 3), while inequalities give an infinite number of answers (such as every number from 3 to infinity). Equations give a definite value to a variable, while inequalities give infinite possibilities, cutting out the regions that are impossible.
It is still 30\textdegree, no matter how you turn it hope this helps.
