Question

0=6x^2-10x-4 solve by factoring

Answer 1

x=2 , - 1/3

Answer 2

How do I solve it by factoring?

Answer 3

Solve for x over the real numbers:
0 = 6 x^2-10 x-4
Reverse the equality in 0 = 6 x^2-10 x-4 in order to isolate x to the left hand side.
0 = 6 x^2-10 x-4 is equivalent to 6 x^2-10 x-4 = 0:
6 x^2-10 x-4 = 0
Factor the left hand side.
The left hand side factors into a product with three terms:
2 (x-2) (3 x+1) = 0
Divide both sides by a constant to simplify the equation.
Divide both sides by 2:
(x-2) (3 x+1) = 0
Solve each term in the product separately.
Split into two equations:
x-2 = 0 or 3 x+1 = 0
Look at the first equation: Solve for x.
Add 2 to both sides:
x = 2 or 3 x+1 = 0
Look at the second equation: Isolate terms with x to the left hand side.
Subtract 1 from both sides:
x = 2 or 3 x = -1
Solve for x.
Divide both sides by 3:
Answer: |
| x = 2 or x = -1/3

Answer 4

I get that but arent you suppose to multiply 6 and negative 4 and get -24.
then you would use -6 and -4 because that would equal -10
6x^2-6x+-4x-4
the gcf would be 6 and -4
x-1 and x+1
this is where I get lost I don’t understand why they aren’t the same?

Answer 5

do i understand how i did it
