help with this http://prntscr.com/1clsnr

OpenStudy (shubhamsrg):

attempt ?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

I believe the answer is D

OpenStudy (anonymous):

my internet was causing some prob sorry

OpenStudy (anonymous):

-2x^2-8+x^2+9x -x^2+9x-8 (1-x)(x-8) i guess it is B?

OpenStudy (shubhamsrg):

what if I write (1-x) as -(x-1) ?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

why?

OpenStudy (shubhamsrg):

then (x-8) becomes -(8-x)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

yup.....

OpenStudy (anonymous):

but what are we going to do with the -1? where will it go?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

there is no -1 in the answerS?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

@shubhamsrg ??

OpenStudy (shubhamsrg):

(1-x) (x-8) = (x-1)(8-x) thats what I was trying to say

OpenStudy (anonymous):

-1{(1-x) (x-8)} = (x-1)(8-x) to be precise right?

OpenStudy (shubhamsrg):

yes

OpenStudy (anonymous):

and that -1 will go the other side and become positive right?

OpenStudy (shubhamsrg):

yes many ways to explain this.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

so D is the answer!

OpenStudy (anonymous):

right?

OpenStudy (shubhamsrg):

yo

OpenStudy (anonymous):

thanks!

OpenStudy (shubhamsrg):

glad to help
