−1(x2 − 16x + 24)

−4(x2 − 4x + 6)

−4x(x2 − 4x + 6) <-- my answer please correct me if I'm wrong thanks

−4(x2 + 4x − 6)

Answer 1

You also have to factorize the quadratic equation
so its actually -4(x-5.162)(x+1.162)
but if you dont want decimals then you left it at the right place.

Answer 2

I don't get it so was I right or wrong ? sorry I'm not the biggest math person

Answer 3

@Mathbreaker

Answer 4

Youre not wrong, but its also not COMPLETELY factorized :P
what i did was use the discriminant equation to get a completely factorized solution :)

Answer 5

I know its not completely factorized lol thanks so much :)

Answer 6

haha welcome :)

Answer 7
