Factor completely: 2x^2 − 4x − 48
2(x^2 -2x -24) 2((x^2-6x+4x-24)) 2(x(x-6)+4(x-6))=2(x-6)(x+4)
thankss so much
mention not
can u help me with this Factor completely: 3x^2 + 19x + 6
(3x ) (x ) Factors for 6 are ..?
1 and 6 or 2 and 3 is there a pair for which one factor times 3 plus the other factor is equal to 19?
there isnt so is it prime
No you have an addition which makes it work, see the "plus"
ok so wat could it be
Let me write out something more complete, it'll take a sec
I set up like this (3x +/- 6) (x +/- 1) (3x +/- 1) (x +/- 6) (3x +/- 2) (x +/- 3) (3x +/- 3) (x +/- 2) Then I just try to think about it.
We have positive 19 and positive 6, so there won't be minus signs.
I notice that 6 times 3 is 18 plus 1 is 19!
(3x + 1) (x + 6)
Normally I wouldn't actually write the signs…
oh wow thanksss
