By using my brain I can figure it out.
The solutions for the given quadratic equation are x = -1 and x = 3. So, option B is correct.
<h3>What are the solutions to an equation?</h3>
- The solutions to an equation are the one that satisfies the equation and makes it true.
- There are different methods to solve an equation and find its solutions.
- These solutions are also called zeros or roots of the equation.
<h3>Calculation:</h3>
The given equation is 4x² - 8x - 12 = 0
Since it is a quadratic equation, it has 2 roots or solutions.
On factorizing the given equation,
4x² - 8x - 12 = 0
⇒ 4x² - 12x + 4x -12 = 0
⇒ 4x(x - 3) + 4(x - 3) = 0
⇒ (4x + 4)(x - 3) = 0
According to the zero-product rule,
4x + 4 = 0 or x - 3 = 0
So, x = -4/4 = -1 or x = 3
Therefore, the solutions of the given equation are -1 and 3.
So, option B) x = -1 and x = 3 is correct.

Answer:
(a) -7, (b) 2
Step-by-step explanation:
a) When x = 0,
=> x² - 8x - 7
=> (0)² - 8(0) - 7
=> 0 - 0 - 7
=> - 7
b) When x = -1,
=> x² - 8x - 7
=> (-1)² - 8(-1) - 7
=> 1 + 8 - 7
=> 9 - 7
=> 2

The mean is found by adding the time it takes Greg each day and then diving by the number of days: 27+25+32=84.
84/3=28 min
it takes Greg 32 min on the third day
