Factorise 11x2-55x-13x+65
Answers
The first term is, 11x2 its coefficient is 11 .
The middle term is, -42x its coefficient is -42 .
The last term, "the constant", is -65
Step-1 : Multiply the coefficient of the first term by the constant 11 • -65 = -715
Step-2 : Find two factors of -715 whose sum equals the coefficient of the middle term, which is -42 .
-715 + 1 = -714
-143 + 5 = -138
-65 + 11 = -54
-55 + 13 = -42 That's it
Step-3 : Rewrite the polynomial splitting the middle term using the two factors found in step 2 above, -55 and 13
11x2 - 55x + 13x - 65
Step-4 : Add up the first 2 terms, pulling out like factors :
11x • (x-5)
Add up the last 2 terms, pulling out common factors :
13 • (x-5)
Step-5 : Add up the four terms of step 4 :
(11x+13) • (x-5)
Which is the desired factorization
