Answer:

s =
-(3)/(2) or -1.5

Explanation:

4s² + 12s = -9

→ Add 9 to both sides

4s² + 12s + 9 = 0

→ Find factors that times to 9 and add to 12

( 2s + 3 ) ( 2s + 3 ) = 0

→ Solve

s =
-(3)/(2) or 0.15

\\ \bull\tt\looparrowright 4s^2+12s=-9


\\ \bull\tt\looparrowright 4s^2+12s+9=0


\\ \bull\tt\looparrowright 4s^2+6s+6s+9=0


\\ \bull\tt\looparrowright 2s(2s+6)+3(2s+3)=0


\\ \bull\tt\looparrowright (2s+6)(2s+3)=3


\\ \bull\tt\looparrowright s=-2\:or\:s=(-3)/(2)
