A) $s = - 6.7 ; s = - 5.5$
B) $s = 3 ; s = 6.7 ; s = 5.5$
C) $s = - 6.7 ; s = 5.5$
D) $s = 6.7 ; s = 5.5$

The equation is in factored form, equating to zero. The solutions are found by setting each factor in the parentheses equal to zero: $s + 6.7 = 0$ gives $s = -6.7$, and $s + 5.5 = 0$ gives $s = -5.5$.

Solve the Equation 0=3(s+6.7)(s+5.5)0 = 3 ( s + 6.7 ) ( s + 5.5 )0=3(s+6.7)(s+5.5)

Solve the Equation $0 = 3 ( s + 6.7 ) ( s + 5.5 )$
