Hi @heatherm9 , please post your question, is it Maths?

anonymous · Answer

Part 1:
In your own words, explain how a trinomial of the form 2x2 + 13x + 15 can be turned into a four term polynomial suitable for factoring by grouping. Use complete sentences.

Part 2: 
If you were an Algebra 1 instructor and were creating a test on factoring trinomials of the form ax2 + bx + c, what do you think would be the easiest way to create a trinomial that can be factored? Provide one unique example.

$$2x^2 + 13x + 15$$
Whenever you have a quadratic of the form 
$$ax^2+bx+c$$
To factor it, we'll split the middle term into two terms
Let's see how we can do that

First Step
Find a*c
here we have 
a=2, c=15
so $a\times c=2\times 15=30$
What's b here?

im sorrry but i have no idea :(

ash2326 · Answer

Compare the two equations
$$ax^2+bx+c$$
$$2x^2+13x+15$$
here we have a=2, c=15
so what's b?
