Solution for x? Help

Question

Determine the solution for x.

P(x) = (x + 3)(x - 5)(x + 1)(x - 2)


1) x = 3, x = -5, x = 1, x = -2

2) x = -3, x = 5, x = 1, x = 2

3) x = 3, x = 5, x = -1, x = 2

4) x = -3, x = 5, x = -1, x = 2

Answer 1

set each factor to 0 and solve for x

P(x)=(x+3)(x-5)(x+1)(x-2)

x+3=0

x=-3

x-5=0

x=5

x+1=0

x=-1

x-2=0

x=2

4) is the answer
