Question

Factor the Trinomial
8x2 − 10xy − 3y2

I can't seem to get the correct answer to this.

Answer 1

8(-3)=-24
-12(2)=-24 AND -12+2=-10
Replace -10xy with -12xy+2xy and factor by grouping

Answer 2

\[8x ^{2} -10xy -3y ^{2}\]
\[8x ^{2} -12xy-2xy-3y ^{2}\]
\[4x(2x-3y) +y(2x-3y)\]
\[(4x+y) (2x-3y)\]
