Question

If you solve by factoring, for what values of x is x^2 + 2x=24 true ?

Answer 1

x = 4, x = -6

Explanation:

Anton van Leeuwenhoek’s contribution in the development of cell theory?

Answer 2

x = 4 or x = -6

Explanation:

x² + 2x = 24

x² + 2x - 24 = 0

x² + 6x - 4x - 24 = 0

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

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

x = 4 or x = -6
