Factor x^2 – 5x – 36

OpenStudy (anonymous):

(x + 9)(x – 4) (x – 9)(x + 4) (x – 12)(x + 3) (x + 12)(x – 3)

OpenStudy (jjuden):

ah shiz whats up cuz

OpenStudy (anonymous):

hahaha hey

OpenStudy (anonymous):

ok see that x^2? when factored it will look like this (x- )(x+ )

OpenStudy (anonymous):

ok im with you so far

OpenStudy (anonymous):

x^2-5x-36 Now you have to find two numbers that add up to 5 and when multiplied they equal 36 ya feel?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

is it the first one?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

sorry i met when added that are -5 and when multiplied they are -36

OpenStudy (anonymous):

no wait the second one

OpenStudy (anonymous):

So x^2-5x-36 x^2= (x-?) (x+?) -5x-36 <--- find two numbers that when added it is -5 but when multiplied it is -36. Know what I'm saying?

OpenStudy (jjuden):
