Factor the expression using the GCF and distributive property. 24a + 36w

the correct option is:

b. a value of the variable that makes the polynomial equal to zero.

the root or roots of a polynomial are the values of the variable that makes the polynomial equal to 0. we can find the roots of a polynomial making the expression equal to 0 and then, isolating the variable (it it has just one variable).

for example, given the following polynomial:

the root or zero of the polynomial, can be found by making the expression equal to 0, and then, isolating the variable, so, finding the root we have:

therefore, we have that the root of the polynomial is equal to 2.

we must remember that the number of roots that a polynomial can have, will depend on the degree of the polynomial, a first degree polynomial have will have one single root, a second degree polynomial (quadratic expression) may have two roots and so.

hence the correct option is:

b. a value of the variable that makes the polynomial equal to zero.

have a nice day!

your answer is b.

step-by-step explanation:

the 2 points are: (3,1) and (6,6)

first, let's find the slope:

(6-1)/(6-3) = 5/3

then let's plug this into the point-slope formula:

y - 1 = 5/3(x - 3)

this is your answer! the below is just the simplified form.

y - 1 = 5/3x - 5

y = 5/3x - 4
