Hello,

Answer A (x=-6 is an extraneous solution)

√(-3x-2)=x+2
==>-3x-2>=0
==>x<= -2/3

So -3x-2=(x+2)²
==>-3x-2=x²+4x+4
==>x²+7x+6=0
==> (x=-6) or (x=-1)

if x=-6 then
√(-3*(-6)-2)=√16=4
-6+2=-4
False 4≠-4

if x=-1
√(-3*(-1)-2)=√1=1
-1+2=1
ok..

Classify the polynomial

<u>By the number of terms</u>

we know that

A polynomial with two terms is a binomial

Anybody know the answer?

Y=x-2+3
I put x-2 because when graphing it's the opposite so it would technically be x+2
Then the +3 for the y chords which go up by 3 ! if this is wrong then try Y= (x-2)+3
