y=1 is the answer, there is no slope, so the formula y=mx+b turns into y=b, since 1 is the intercept 1 is b.
Answer:
x³ + 7x² - 6x - 72
Step-by-step explanation:
Given
(x + 6)(x + 4)(x - 3) ← expand the second and third factor, that is
(x + 4)(x - 3)
Each term in the second factor is multiplied by each term in the first factor, that is
x(x - 3) + 4(x - 3) ← distribute both parenthesis
= x² - 3x + 4x - 12 ← collect like terms
= x² + x - 12
Now multiply this by (x + 6) in the same way
(x + 6)(x² + x - 12)
= x(x² + x - 12) + 6(x² + x - 12) ← distribute both parenthesis
= x³ + x² - 12x + 6x² + 6x - 72 ← collect like terms
= x³ + 7x² - 6x - 72
Y= Mx+b
In the equation of a straight line,the slope is the number "m" that is multiplied on the x, and "b<span>" is the </span>y<span>-intercept (that is, the point where the line crosses the vertical </span>y<span>-axis).</span>

5-(-1) =6
So the answer is D
