4x^2+16x+13=0 factor
Answers
Answer:
Conclusion : Trinomial can not be factored
Step-by-step explanation:
Factoring 4x2-16x+13
The first term is, 4x2 its coefficient is 4 .
The middle term is, -16x its coefficient is -16 .
The last term, "the constant", is +13
Step-1 : Multiply the coefficient of the first term by the constant 4 * 13 = 52
Step-2 : Find two factors of 52 whose sum equals the coefficient of the middle term, which is -16 .
-52 + -1 = -53
-26 + -2 = -28
-13 + -4 = -17
-4 + -13 = -17
-2 + -26 = -28
-1 + -52 = -53
1 + 52 = 53
2 + 26 = 28
4 + 13 = 17
13 + 4 = 17
26 + 2 = 28
52 + 1 = 53
Observation : No two such factors can be found !!
Conclusion : Trinomial can not be factored
