You did a good job of sharing this quadratic equation in proper symbolic notation, but you haven't yet shared the instructions for this problem.

I will assume that you are to find the roots / zeros of a^2+5a+6=0. Factoring results in (a+3)(a+2)= 0, from which we deduce that a = -3 and a = -2.

The solution set is {-3, -2}.

we are given

a^2+5a+6=0

we can use factoring formula

a^2-(m+n)a+mn=(a-m)(a-n)

we can compare

and we get

m+n=-5

mn=6

now, we can solve for m and n

and we get

m=-3 , n=-2

now, we can use formula

and we get

a^2+5a+6=(a+3)(a+2)

now, we can set it equal to 0

a^2+5a+6=(a+3)(a+2)=0

(a+3)=0

a=-3

a+2=0

a=-2

so, we will get

a=-2,a=-3.............Answer

A line passes through the two given points. Is it vertical , horizontal , or neither ?
TiliK225 [7]
Well to give your question an answer the points (as i have graphed them) seem to have the same Y axis. This means that a horizontal line can pass through the points. Horizontal: In geometry, a horizontal line is one which runs from left to right across the page. It comes from the word 'horizon', in the sense that horizontal lines are parallel<span> to the horizon.</span>
