Bo is dumb then xD

RhondaSommer (rhondasommer):

\[x^2-8xy\]shouldbe\[x(x-8y)\]then you have the second half which was right and it is \[-2y(x-8y)\]and you can combine the \[(x-8y)\] parts of both the sides and make it \[(x-2y)(x-8y)\]

RhondaSommer (rhondasommer):

and idk how to answer b

ILovePuppiesLol (ilovepuppieslol):

ok no worries! thank you for ur help

@hartnn do u know how to do this ;~;

RhondaSommer (rhondasommer):

here i got it. When a and c are positive, two factors of ac must add to equal |b|. In this case ac = 1(16) = 16. Two factors of 16, 2 and 8 add up to the absolute value of b. |-10| = 10. If ac is negative, two factors of ac must have a difference of |b
