Answer:
You can determine the root of the equation by multiple methods. However, that answer is correct. The root is -2.
Step-by-step explanation:
A root is where the graph crosses the x-axis. One trick I use to see if it is a root is by taking the numerator and plugging in the number for x. For example, , and take the -2 and plug it in for x. The numerator would cancel out because -2 + 2 = 0. That is the way you can determine if it is a root or not.
I hope this helps, if you need any clarification let me know :)

evaluate f(5) and f(2)
f(5) = 5m + b and f(2) = 2m + b, hence
f(5) - f(2) = 5m + b - 2m - b = 3m
the expression simplifies to
= 2 ( cross- multiply )
3m = 6 ( divide both sides by 3 )
m = 2 → A
