Question

Use the zero product property to find the solutions to the equation x^2+x-30=12

Answer 1

Answer:

Due to there being no negatives in this equation, you can pretty much just eliminate the first 3 answers.

However in working out, here is what I did.

x^2 + x - 30 = 12 (+30) 

= x^2 + x = 42

Then you can conclude that the answer is D, due to 6 x 6 = 36, plus 7 equaling 42.
