Question

Factor the ff. Trinomials
5x2 + 24x + 16
2x2 - 3x - 9
6x2 - 27x - 15
pls. answer, or give me some hints pls

Answer 1

I'll help you with the first one
\[5x^2 + 24x + 16\]
A standard quadratic is of the form
\[ax^2+bx+c\]
here a=5, b=24 and c=16
first step: find \(a\times b\), it comes as \(16\times 5=80\)
second step: find factors of a*c such that the sum of the two is b,
here we need to find factors of 80 such that their sum is 24
, the two factors are 4 and 20
let's verify that
4*20=80
4+20=24
Do you get this?
