F(x)= 6x^2 + 6x + 12 (solve by factoring.)

You can't solve for the zeros by factoring because the function is not factorable.

I'll show you what happens:
f(x) = 6x^2 + 6x + 12

To solve for the zeros (when f(x)=0), set f(x) equal to 0.
0 = 6x^2 + 6x + 12

First you can factor out a 6.
0 = 6(x^2 + x + 2)

Divide by 6.
0 = x^2 + x + 2

Now you need two integers that add up to the coefficient of x (1) and multiply to the product of the last term and the coefficient of x^2. This number is 2.
No two integers add up to 1 and multiply to 2.

Answer for 2: his profit would be $2.88 explanation: you have to first multiply 72 and 0.12 together to get $8.64 once you do that you know how much money the shopkeeper made from selling the candy bars individually. so you have to do 8.64-5.76=2.88 hope that ; )answer for 3: yeah i’m sorry i have no idea what number 3 is. i’m sorry i couldn’t with that.
