Question

Solve the equation by factoring..

Answer 1

I think I messed up somewhere..

61-61x= (8x+3)(x-1)
61-61x= 8x^2 -8x+3x+3
61-61x=8x^2 -5x+3

58-61x=8x^2 -5x

8x^2 +56x-58=0

Answer 2

hold on one sec solving myself to see if you made a mistake btw thanks for the effort yourself first

Answer 3

` 3 times -1= ???` mistake #1

I think I messed up somewhere..
61-61x= (8x+ `3`)(x `-1`)
61-61x= 8x^2 -8x+3x `+3`
61-61x=8x^2 -5x+3
