Question

I just need someone to check my answer please :)

Factor:
2x2 - 7x + 6

(2x − 3)(x + 2)
(2x − 3)(x − 2)
(2x + 3)(x − 2) ----- my answer
(2x − 2)(x + 3)

Answer 1

You might wanna check again. The coefficients are right tho, just not the right signs.

Answer 2

ah okay, so would it be the first one? or are they both negative ):

Answer 3

Well if you check the signs, it's - and +

+ means it'll be + and + or - and -
But that - tells you it has to be - and - because + and + wouldn't give you a -

Make sense?

Answer 4

originally i got (2x+3) (x+2), but that's not an option

Answer 5

The second option is the only one that will give you a +6 and -7

Answer 6

makes sense, thank you so much

Answer 7

You're welcome :)
