Answer 1

To determine which equation has the solution set \( x = \{-95, 3\} \), we can set each equation equal to zero and solve for \( x \).

1. **Equation**: \((x - 3)(5x + 9) = 0\)
- Solutions:
- \(x - 3 = 0 \rightarrow x = 3\)
- \(5x + 9 = 0 \rightarrow 5x = -9 \rightarrow x = -\frac{9}{5}\)
- Solution set: \{3, -\frac{9}{5}\}

2. **Equation**: \(-3x(5x + 9) = 0\)
- Solutions:
- \(-3x = 0 \rightarrow x = 0\)
- \(5x + 9 = 0 \rightarrow 5x = -9 \rightarrow x = -\frac{9}{5}\)
- Solution set: \{0, -\frac{9}{5}\}

3. **Equation**: \((x + 3)(9x - 5) = 0\)
- Solutions:
- \(x + 3 = 0 \rightarrow x = -3\)
- \(9x - 5 = 0 \rightarrow 9x = 5 \rightarrow x = \frac{5}{9}\)
- Solution set: \{-3, \frac{5}{9}\}

4. **Equation**: \((x - 3)(9x + 5) = 0\)
- Solutions:
- \(x - 3 = 0 \rightarrow x = 3\)
- \(9x + 5 = 0 \rightarrow 9x = -5 \rightarrow x = -\frac{5}{9}\)
- Solution set: \{3, -\frac{5}{9}\}

None of the provided equations gives a solution set of \(\{-95, 3\}\).

If \( x = -95 \) is to be included in the solution set, let's analyze what that would require:
- Something like \((x + 95)(x - 3) = 0\) would give \(x = -95\) and \(x = 3\). But none of the available options produce this equation.

Thus, it appears there is no solution set among the options that equals \(\{-95, 3\}\).
