Question

Homework help with Factoring? Please? Thank you!! I need to see how to work it out, that way I can actually learn this, draw it out if you can? I will post it below thanks !

Answer 1

you got my attention!

Answer 2

ok you have choices so it make it easier

Answer 3

Hey Satellite! long time no see! I have already used the slide and divide method, but i think im gonna have to use grouping, which i am not very good at

Answer 4

when you multiply out any of those "binomials" the last term, the number, will be what you get when you multiply the two constants together
that has to give you \(-30\)

Answer 5

@AliLnn sure

Answer 6

to it could be A \((2b+5)(2b-6)\) or it could be C \((2b-5)(2b+6)\) because \(-5\times 6=-30\) it can't be the other two

Answer 7

damn typo sorry

Answer 8

I have to show my work for this, that is why i needed step by step (possibly drawn out) examples -_- sorry and your fine darlin, take your time haha

Answer 9

\[(2b+5)(5b-6)\] or \[(2b-5)(5b+6)\]

Answer 10

i have no idea what "work" you have to show to do this
you pretty much have to grind it til you find it

Answer 11

you can check which ones of the above give you a "middle term" of \(-13b\)

Answer 12

which will of course be C

Answer 13

you know what, im just gonna show my work for working out the answer choices and that should be good enough! lol and thank you, my mind was grinding gears over nothin over here haha

Answer 14

you can guess it will be \((2b+?)(5b+?)\) and then reason that one of those has to be positive, the other negative, since the product is negative

Answer 15

you get a bunch of choices, but since you really only have 4 possible answers, you can check the one that is right
otherwise it is very tedious to go through all the possible combinations

Answer 16

Thanks Love! :D
