Question

Identify the solution(s) of t2+15t=−36.

Answer 1

t = - 12, t = - 3

Explanation:

Given

t² + 15t = - 36 ( add 36 to both sides )

t² + 15t + 36 = 0 ← in standard form

(t + 12)(t + 3) = 0 ← in factored form

Equate each factor to zero and solve for t

t + 12 = 0 ⇒ t = - 12

t + 3 = 0 ⇒ t = - 3

Answer 2

i solved for t and got

t= -3, -12
