A Mathematica solution is attached. The answer is (3 x-5) (5 x-4)

OpenStudy (christos):

Thank you I will check it right now!

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Thank you for the medal.

OpenStudy (christos):

Is there is simplier solution to the matter?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

I guess students are expected to factor by trial and error. I don't know of any other method without Mathematica.

OpenStudy (christos):

Ok however thank you for your help! I will ask some more students here to see if someone can solve it to me in a more simple way.

OpenStudy (christos):

Medal given if you help me!

it is just a guess work. (ax+b)(cx+d)=acx^2 + (ad+bc)x + bd so given ac, ad+bc, bd you want to find a, b, c, d right? make a guess!

OpenStudy (christos):

fan and fan testimonial given too!
