Answer 16

okay thanks

Answer 17

Any more?

Answer 18

umm no at this moment

Answer 19

x^2-2x-15

Just get used to the style. WRITE DOWN what you know.

It's going to look like this...

(x __ ____)(x __ ____)

-15 < 0, so the signs will be different. With x^2 (as opposed to 3x^2 or 7x^2), it doesn't matter where. Just pick one.

(x + ____)(x - ____)

Factors of 15 are 1*15, 3*5. Which one has a difference of -2?

(x + 3)(x - 5)

One piece at a time. Just think your way through it.
