Question

8.
The factors of 2x² - 7x + 3 are:
(a) (x - 3)(2x - 1)
(b) (x + 3)(2x + 1)
(c) (x - 3)(2x + 1)
(d) (x + 3)(2x - 1)​

Answer 1

2x² – 7x + 3

2x² – 6x – x + 3

2x ( x – 3 ) – 1 ( x – 3 )

( 2x – 1 ) ( x – 3 )

( a ) is the correct answer

Answer 2

Solution:-

=> 2x² - 7x + 3

=> 2x² - 6x - 1x + 3

=> 2x(x - 3) - 1 (x - 3)

=> (2x-1) (x- 3)

or we can write it as

=> ( x - 3 ) ( 2x - 1 )

hence annswer is (a) ( x - 3 ) ( 2x - 1 )

i hope it helps you.
