Answer:
[tex]x = 4,-2[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
Step 1: Set each factor to zero then solve
x - 4 = 0
Add 4 to both sides to get x by itself
[tex]x - 4 + 4 = 0 + 4[/tex]
[tex]x = 4[/tex]
x + 2 = 0
Subtract 2 to both sides to get x by itself
[tex]x + 2 - 2 = 0 - 2[/tex]
[tex]x = -2[/tex]
Answer: [tex]x = 4,-2[/tex]
