Question

how do you factor 3x^2 + 25x + 46?

Answer 1

I would use the quadratic equation.

Answer 2

\[x = (-b \pm \sqrt{b ^{2}-4ac})/2a\]

in your equation a = 3, b=25, and c =46

Answer 3

u can not factor this one so to find the values of the x, use the quadratic equation adn Ceriona had stated earlier by plugging in a = 3, b=25, and c =46.

Answer 4

agreed with ^^. after you have that, write it out as
(x - r1)(x - r2)

where r1, r2 are the solutions you got from the quadratic equation.

Answer 5

r1, r2 are irrational, so if you were expecting "nice" answers, the expression can't be factorable.

Answer 6

if you were asked to factor this the correct response is that it is prime

Answer 7

like optimus...

Answer 8

I concur
