Factor and check: -1x^2 - 11x - 24 = 0

-1x^2 - 11x - 24 = 0

-1( x^2 + 11x + 24) = 0

-1 (x )(x ) ( +3)( +8)=0

-(x+3) (x+8) = 0

Solve:

-1(x+3)=0

-1(x) (-1)(+3)=0

-x-3=0

-x-3+3=0+3

-1x=3

-1x/-1=3/-1

x=-3

Solve:

-1(x+8) = 0

-1(x) (-1)(+8) = 0

-1x-8=0

-1x-8+8=0+8

-1x=8

-1x/-1=8/-1

x=-8
