I am very sorry to say but I see no equations for this question. Also, I suppose the question must be either x = -6 and y=2 or x=2 and y=-6.

Answer:


x^2 + 4x - 12 = 0 is true for x = -6 and x = 2.

Explanation:

Given:

x = -6 and x = 2

The above are the solutions of an equation.

So the factors are (x +6) and (x -2)

Now we have to find the equation by multiplying these two factors.

(x + 6) (x -2) = 0

x(x -2) + 6(x - 2) = 0

Let's use the distributive property and simplify.

x^2 - 2x + 6x - 12 =0

Simplifying the like terms, we get

x^2 + 4x - 12 =0.

The equation
x^2 + 4x -12 =0true for x = -6 and x = 2.
