How to factorize splitting the middle term

OpenStudy (anonymous):

We should better take an example here.. Right??

OpenStudy (factor):

yup

OpenStudy (factor):

go ahead

OpenStudy (factor):

explain me with an example please

OpenStudy (anonymous):

So, let us factor firstly a simple one.. \(Example : Factorize \; \; \; x^2 + 4x + 3\)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Firstly you must compare it with standard equation given as: \(ax^2 + bx + c\) Can you tell me on comparison, what are values of a,b and c?

OpenStudy (factor):

say WHAT

OpenStudy (factor):

yup @waterineyes

OpenStudy (anonymous):

first of all we w'll take lcm of by multiplying 3 to \(x^2\) now, by taking lcm we get \(3*1\) so in middle we add those numbers which ...if we add them then we get 4x |dw:1407746458179:dw|

OpenStudy (factor):

okay

OpenStudy (anonymous):

here we add \(x\) instead of co-efficient ''1'' now \(x^2+3x+x+3\) OK

OpenStudy (anonymous):

now we we'll make factors by taking common \(x{(x+3})~+~1(x+3)\) \((x+1)(x+3)\) this is answer more ?
