Question

mc011-1.jpg?
x = –12
x = –4
x = 4
x = 12

Answer 1

I can’t see mc011-1.jpg. Could you either upload the image or type the equation/problem text from the image?

If you want to know which of the listed x-values are solutions, tell me whether the image is:
- an equation to solve (so I should substitute each x into the equation), or
- a graph (so I should identify x-intercepts), or
- something else.

If it’s an algebraic equation, a quick way to check each candidate is to plug x = −12, −4, 4, 12 into the left-hand side and see whether it equals the right-hand side. If it’s a graph, look for where the curve crosses the x-axis; those x-coordinates are the solutions.

Send the image or the full problem and I’ll identify which of the four values are correct.
