can someone help me create a factorable trinomial that can be factored into 2 binomials

Question

hartnn · Answer

yes.

hartnn · Answer

lets take an example.
x^2+ 12x+ 20

anonymous · Answer

$$x^{2} +6x +8  $$
factored to (x+4)(x+2) because 4 and 2 times to 8 and adds to 6

anonymous · Answer

Start with the binomials first then multiply.

hartnn · Answer

tell me what are two numbers whose product is 20 and sum is 12 ?

anonymous · Answer

4 and 5

hartnn · Answer

nopes, sum is not 12

anonymous · Answer

oh sum unm

anonymous · Answer

there is not other number that gives u 20

anonymous · Answer

as a product

hartnn · Answer

ok, how about 10 and 2 ?

anonymous · Answer

5

hartnn · Answer

5 ?

anonymous · Answer

Probably best to review FOILing here.

anonymous · Answer

?

hartnn · Answer

@Nana3456 i asked u 2 numbers whose sum is 12 and product is 20.
are 10 and 2 those numbers ?

anonymous · Answer

did you see my answer

anonymous · Answer

If the task is to create a trinomial, then start with two binomials, (x+a)(x+b) and multiply them by FOILing (First Outer Inner Last). You can pick whatever you want for a and b - no guess work required.

anonymous · Answer

yes I saw it

anonymous · Answer

guys I am very greatful to all of you but I can not understand if everuony is talking to me at the same time :(

anonymous · Answer

um meabe am not sure @hartnn

hartnn · Answer

ok, lets take an easier example.
x^2+4x+4
give me 2 numbers whose product = 4 and sum = 4 ?

anonymous · Answer

@TAKEBACKMATH said that 
x2+6x+8

factored to (x+4)(x+2) because 4 and 2 times to 8 and adds to 6 
so this can be factorable trinomial and factored into two binomals?

hartnn · Answer

yes. he directly gave u the answer.

anonymous · Answer

mm and how can I put this on a decending order?

anonymous · Answer

thank you @TAKEBACKMATH

anonymous · Answer

how can I put this on a decending order?

hartnn · Answer

putting factors in descending order ?

anonymous · Answer

the trinomal
