The function g of x is defined as g of x is equal to 6 x squared plus 23 x minus 4 When does g of x is equal to 0 ?

Answer
A
x is equal to negative 6 or x is equal to 1 fourth
B
x is equal to negative 1 sixth or x is equal to 4
C
x is equal to negative 4 or x is equal to 1 sixth
D
x is equal to negative 1 fourth or x is equal to 6

Explanation

Factor the quadratic: 6x² + 23x − 4 = (6x − 1)(x + 4). For the product to equal 0, either 6x − 1 = 0, giving x = 1/6, or x + 4 = 0, giving x = −4. Therefore, the correct choice is C: x is equal to negative 4 or x is equal to 1 sixth.
