Rewriting the equation as a quadratic equation equal to zero:
     x^2 - x - 30 = 0
We need two numbers whose sum is -1 and whose product is -30. In this case, it would have to be 5 and -6. Therefore we can also write our equation in the factored form
     (x + 5)(x - 6) = 0
Now we have a product of two expressions that is equal to zero, which means any x value that makes either (x + 5) or (x - 6) zero will make their product zero.
     x + 5 = 0  => x = -5
     x - 6 = 0  => x = 6
Therefore, our solutions are x = -5 and x = 6.

s2008m [1.1K]

Answer:

1) b, c, d

2) d

3) a, c, d

Step-by-step explanation:

Just find the number that can divide by the whole. Say the question was

A pet shop have 20 pets. The same amount of pets are in each room. How many rroms could there be?

If there were 4 rooms, 5 pets would be in each. 20÷4=5. 4 goes into 20 so 4 could be an answer.

If there were 3 rooms, 6 rooms would have 3 pets and 2 would be left over. So it wouldn't work. You just need to find the number that goes into the whole with no remainder.

What is the other solution??
Vladimir79 [104]

Answer:

The other solution is 12.

Step-by-step explanation:

Break the solution into groups: (x^2+2x)+(-12x-24)

Factor out the x^2 from the first group to get x(x+2)

Factor out the -12 out of the second group to get -12(x-12)

Here we get (x-12)(x+2)

You can see solutions are -2 and 12.
