Question

(4q + 3)(q + 2) = 0 how do I do this

Answer 1

-3/4, -2

Explanation:

I'm guessing you're solving for q

We can divide both sides by (q+2) and get that (4q+3) = 0, because anything dividing 0 is 0.

now 4q + 3 = 0, so 4q = -3, q = -3/4.

BUT we also have to do the other one, divide both sides by (4q+3) so we get q + 2 = 0, q = -2.

This is a fairly difficult concept to grasp when first learning it, I would highly recommend doing research. Search for, "factor and solve polynomial equations"

Answer 2

We will solve this problem by factoring. First, we will separate this equation and split it into two.
4q+3=0 and q+2=0
Now all we have to do is to solve for q. Let’s do the second first because it easier.
q+2=0
Subtract 2 to both sides:
q=-2
That’s one of your answers.

Now the other one:
4q+3=0
Subtract 3 to both sides:
4q=-3
Divide 4 to both sides:
q=-3/4 or -0.75
That’s your other answer.

Hope this helped!
