Factor -2x^2+6x+20 I got (x+2)(-2x+10) but my book said it was -2(x-5)(x+2) wondering what i did wrong

OpenStudy (anonymous):

for your answer you didnt take out the GCF for the second one, thats why.

OpenStudy (itsonlycdeee):

-2(x^2 - 3x +20) ---> -2 (x-5)(x+2)

OpenStudy (itsonlycdeee):

You just forgot to factor out that -2

OpenStudy (bekkah323):

oh ok, thanks

OpenStudy (anonymous):

you didn't factor out the -2 !
