Solve x^2+ 15x + 50 = 0 using factoring. Select one: a. {5, -10} b. {0, 50} c. {-5, -10} d. {5, 10}

OpenStudy (anonymous):

its not d

OpenStudy (anonymous):

or a

OpenStudy (anonymous):

i am not going to say yes or not but y do you say that

OpenStudy (anonymous):

i tried them.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

hmm what about straight factoring

OpenStudy (anonymous):

whats that ?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

are you guessing ?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

no, the product of the roots of any polynomial is equal to the constant factor only c and d have a product equal to 50

OpenStudy (anonymous):

and assuming your freind is correct about it not being d, then it must be c.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

they don't need to.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Its c, i just checked it

OpenStudy (anonymous):

I'll go with c

OpenStudy (anonymous):
