factor each problem completely: see below:

OpenStudy (anonymous):

\[15k ^{2}-19k+6\]

1. Once again, the first step is "is there a common factor to all terms"? 15, -19 and 6 have nothing in common. the answer is no. 2. Multiply ac together. What do you get?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

(3k )(5k )

OpenStudy (anonymous):

= (3k-2)(5k-3)

OpenStudy (mathstudent55):

Correct.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

ok how do I know where the 2 and 3 go?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

if negative the smaller number and if positive the larger number goes in front?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

I think I understand everything except for that
