Question

Which statement is true about the equation (x – 4)(x + 2) = 16? O The equation x - 4 = 16 can be used to solve for a solution of the given equation. O The standard form of the equation is x2 - 2x - 8 = 0. O The factored form of the equation is (x + 4)(x - 6) = 0. O One solution of the equation is x = -6. vity​

Answer 1

The factored form of the equation is (x + 4)(x - 6) = 0

Explanation:

(x - 4)(x + 2) = 16

`x^(2) -2x - 8 = 16`

`x^(2) -2x - 24` = 0

(x - 6)(x + 4) = 0

x = 6 or x = -4
