Have you worked the problem out yet, and got an answer?

Answer 2

no not yet

Answer 3

Use the sum-product pattern 2𝑥2+11𝑥+15 2𝑥2+6𝑥+5𝑥+15 Common factor from the two pairs 2𝑥2+6𝑥+5𝑥+15 2𝑥(𝑥+3)+5(𝑥+3) Rewrite in factored form 2𝑥(𝑥+3)+5(𝑥+3) (2𝑥+5)(𝑥+3) Solution (2𝑥+5)(𝑥+3)

Use the sum-product pattern
2𝑥2+11𝑥+15
2𝑥2+6𝑥+5𝑥+15

Common factor from the two pairs
2𝑥2+6𝑥+5𝑥+15
2𝑥(𝑥+3)+5(𝑥+3)

Rewrite in factored form
2𝑥(𝑥+3)+5(𝑥+3)
(2𝑥+5)(𝑥+3)

Solution
(2𝑥+5)(𝑥+3)
