q^2 - 10q-96=0 lick on "Show your work" and show all your steps to: a. Write the trinomial in factored form. b. Find the solutions to the equation.

-6,16

Step-by-step explanation:

q² - 10q - 96 = 0

q² - 16x + 6q - 96 = 0

q (q - 16) + 6 (q - 16) = 0

(q - 16) (q + 6) = 0

q = - 6, 16

Step-by-step explanation:

a) q² - 10q - 96 = 0

q² - 16q + 6q - 6 * 16 = 0

q (q-16) + 6 (q - 16) = 0

(q - 16) (q + 6) = 0

b) (q - 16) (q + 6) = 0

q - 16 = 0 or q + 6 = 0

q = 16 or q = - 6
