What are the solutions to the inequality open paren x minus 3 close paren times open paren x plus 5 close paren is less than or equal to 0 ?

The factors are zero at x = 3 and x = -5. The product (x - 3)(x + 5) is less than or equal to zero between these roots, including the endpoints where the product equals zero. Thus the solution is -5 ≤ x ≤ 3, choice B.
