What are the zeros of the function f(x) = (3x^2 + 9x + 6) / (3x - 6) ?

1 answer:

6 0

3x^2 + 9x + 6 = 0
3x^2 + 3x + 6x + 6 = 0
3x(x + 1) + 6(x + 1) = 0
(3x + 6)(x + 1) = 0
3x + 6 = 0 and x + 1 = 0
3x = -6 and x = -1
x = -2 and x = -1

Why is -a² is always negative (a ≠ 0) and why is (-a)² is always positive?

hjlf

$-a^2=(-1)\cdot a\cdot a$

Regardless of the sign of $a$ , we have $a\cdot a=a^2\ge0$ (never negative). But multiplying by -1 makes it negative.

On the other hand,

$(-a)^2=((-1)\cdot a)^2=(-1)^2\cdot a^2=1\cdot a^2=a^2$

which can never be negative for real $a$ .
