X^2+16x+48=0 it says to solve each quadratic equation by factoring.

x = -4 and x = -12

Step-by-step explanation:

x^2 + 16x + 48 = 0 is to be factored.

Note that 48 is the product of 4 and 12 and that the sum of 4 and 12 is 16.

Therefore,

x^2 + 16x + 48 = 0 in factored form is:

(x + 4)(x + 12) = 0, so that x + 4 = 0 → x = -4, and

                                        x + 12 = 0  → x = -12
