Answer:
Part A: chosen method is by factoring
Part B: First rewrite the equation by writing -24 as a difference so you get x² -9x - 15x + 135 = 0. Then factor out the x and the -15 from the equation so you get x(x-9) - 15(x-9) = 0. Then factor out x-9 from the equation so you have (x-9)(x-15) = 0. Finally, set each expression to 0: x-9=0 and x-15=0 and then solve: x=9 and x=15
Part C: x=9, x=15
To factor, we always have to look for common factors in the numbers given to us. In this case, in 1/2 and 6, the common factor is 1/2. Therefore, we will have to factor like so:
1/2d + 6 = 1/2 (d + 3)
