3. -6x^2-96x-360=

Answer 1

To solve this equation, we can first factor out a common factor of -6:

-6(x^2 + 16x + 60) = 0

Next, we can factor the quadratic expression inside the parentheses:

-6(x + 6)(x + 10) = 0

Now, we can set each factor equal to zero and solve for x:

x + 6 = 0 or x + 10 = 0

Solving for x in each equation:

x = -6 or x = -10

Therefore, the solutions to the equation are x = -6 and x = -10.
