I don’t even know :( sorry
Answer: x=3
Step-by-step explanation:
To find the zeros, you want to first factor the expression.
x³+x²-36
(x-3)(x²+4x+12)
Now that we have found the factors, we set each to 0.
x-3=0
x=3
Since x²+4x+12 cannot be factored, we can forget about this part.
Therefore, the zeros are x=3. You can check this by plugging the expression into a graphing calculator to see the zeros.
12 girls for every 5 boys
boys is second so it shouldb be indenomenaotr (bottom)
girls/boys
12girls/5boys=2.4girls/boy
answer is B
Only problem is with the simplifying.
We all know that 5/5 = 1, it is natural to assume (x+a)/(x+a) is also 1, but in some cases where x+a=0, it is undefined. In this equation, where they simplify (x-2) and (x-6), you must say that x is not 2 nor 6 or, you just delete 0/0 which is undefined.
Therefore the only solution would be x=-1
