Question

What is the expression in factored form?
2x^2 + 16x + 24

Answer 1

(x+2)(x+6)

Answer 2

times 2

Answer 3

So it's 2(x+6)(x+2)

Answer 4

yes, that's what times 2 means

Answer 5

so x = -2 or x =-6 at the roots

Answer 6

2(x+6)(x+2) is factored form... finding the roots means finding where this equation is equal to zero. it is equal to 0 when (x+2) and/or (x+6) equals 0... replace x with -2 or -6 and you end up with 0
