1.
(x-8) (x+5)
1.
Use the sum product pattern
x² + 3x -40
x² + 5x - 8x - 4
Common factor from the two pairs
x² + 5x - 8x -40
x(x + 5) - 8(x + 5)
Rewrite in the factored form
x(x-5)-8(x+5)
(x-8) (x+5)
:• (x-8) (x+5)
2.
(x²+2x-15)
(x−3)(x+5)
2.
To Factorise : x² +2x−15
By splitting the middle term
=x² +5x−3x−15
=x(x+5)−3(x+5)
=(x−3)(x+5)
So, x² +2x−15
=(x−3)(x+5)
