Question

Which of the following is a value of r for which (r + 2)(r − 3) = 0?

6
0
−2
−3
−6

Answer 1

r = -2 , 3

Explanation:

(r + 2)(r -3) = 0

r + 2 = 0 ; r - 3 = 0

Subtract 2 from both sides ; add 3 to both sides

r = -2 ; r = 3

r = -2 , 3

Answer 2

Hi ;-)

`(r+2)(r-3)=0\\\\r+2=0 \ \vee \ r-3=0\\\\\boxed{r=-2} \ \vee \ \boxed{r=3}`
