4 x 30 = 120
(x + 12)(x - 8)
Yes It is indeed 96.
3x2 + 4x + 1 = ?? This is a quadratic equation. The equation can be made to equal any number and this will determine the corresponding values of x. EXAMPLE : 3x2 + 4x + 1 = 96 (x = 5 or x = -19/3) Alternatively, if x is known then this will determine the result. EXAMPLE : If x = 2 then (3 x 4) + (4 x 2) + 1 = 12 + 8 + 1 = 21 In normal use, a quadratic equation is presented as equal to zero. In this example : 3x2 + 4x + 1 = 0
