The factor polynomial for the perimeter....... 2x^2+18x+36

OpenStudy (helder_edwin):

i don't understand. do u have to factor this polynomial?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

yes, it's the second part of the questions...... basically it wanting the number that will multiply to 36 and add to 18

OpenStudy (anonymous):

(2x+6)(x+6)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

decart that was the wrong answer......... the answer was 2(x+6)(x+3).

OpenStudy (helder_edwin):

no. that is the right answer. what u just wrote is exactly the same.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

they want the answer to look like what I just wrote on here........

OpenStudy (anonymous):

2(x+9+18)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

then factor further

I'm having to do a completely different one now so that I can get full credit for the problem
