Factor completely 2x2 - 6x – 36. 2(x - 3)(x + 6) 2(x - 6)(x + 3) (2x - 4)(x +9) (2x - 9)(x + 4)

I think it is A...
Hmm yes, I believe you are right
great thanks..do you mind helping me with one more?
Sure! I'll try :)
the given equation is 2x2-6x-36=0 taking 2 as common so it would be as 2(x2-3x-18)=0 x2-3x-18=0 x2-6x+3x-18=0 x(x-6)+3(x-6)=0 (x-6)(x+3)
match your answer with it
Determine the factors of x^2 - 6x - 8. Prime (x + 4)(x - 2) (x - 4)(x + 2) (x + 8)(x - 1)
is this equation correct?
Meaning I typed the question right? Yes
It is the second one
are you sure?
because 4 and 2 are factors of 8 that add to 6 and the middle term has to be negative
yes when we multiply them u got exact that equation which is given in the above question's equation.
So it is (x + 4)(x - 2)
No, it is (x-4) (x+2)
oh....I thought you said B
thank you though
x2 +2x -4x -8=0 x2 -2x-8=0 this is incorrect
Oh, no, sorry! It's C :) haha
@jcbako u should again check it from your note book
C is also not the correct answer
Im thinking Prime
did u check it?
I tried all other answers and did not get the equation
