myininaya (myininaya):

a=2,b=11,c=5 you cool with that?

OpenStudy (ragingsquirrel):

I don't understand why people ask questions they already know the answer to...

myininaya (myininaya):

we want to find two factors of a*c that have product a*c and sum b.

OpenStudy (bahrom7893):

raging they want to understand

OpenStudy (pokemon23):

i need to duble check im right

myininaya (myininaya):

yes what bahrom said

myininaya (myininaya):

a*c=2(5)=10=10(1) isn't 10+1=b?

OpenStudy (pokemon23):

I have to be always rgight in my math class I have the highest average I need to keep up into being the best

OpenStudy (pokemon23):

so I'm wrong?

OpenStudy (pokemon23):

i have to factor....

OpenStudy (pokemon23):

Here are my steps

myininaya (myininaya):

so if 10+1=b =>10x+1x=bx then we can replace middle term with 10x+1x and then factor by grouping... \[2x^2+10x+1x+5=2x(x+5)+1(x+5)=(x+5)(2x+1)\]

myininaya (myininaya):

you are right! :)

OpenStudy (pokemon23):

yes :D
