The values of x that would result in the given expression being equal to 0, in order from least to greatest, are
and

Answer 1

Answer:

x = - 2 and x = 6

Step-by-step explanation:

given

(x - 6)(x + 2) = 0

equate each factor to zero and solve for x

x - 6 = 0 ⇒ x = 6

x + 2 = 0 ⇒ x = - 2

the values of x that result in the expression being equal to 0 are

x = - 2 and x = 6
