Factorise 8x^2-10xy-7y^2
Answers
Answer:
( 4x - 7y ) ( 2x + y )
Step-by-step explanation:
To find ---> Factors of 8x² - 10 xy - 7y²
Solution---> ATQ, we have to find factors of
8x² - 10 xy - 7y²
We factorize this expression by using the method of splitting the middle term method.
In this method first we multiply the coefficient of x² and y² from which we get, 8 × 7 = 56 then we do prime factorization of 56
56 = 2 × 2 × 2 × 7
Now we make two numbers from these factors whose difference is ten.
Such numbers are
2 × 2 = 4 and 2 × 7 = 14 , their difference is
14 - 4 = 10 .
Now ,
8x² - 10 x y - 7 y²
Putting 10 = ( 14 - 4 ) , in it , we get,
= 8x² - ( 14 - 4 ) x y - 7y²
Multiplying by xy in the each term of bracket, we get,
= 8x² - ( 14 xy - 4 xy ) - 7y²
Open the bracket by changing the sign
= 8x² - 14 xy + 4 xy - 7y²
= 2x ( 4x - 7y ) + y ( 4x - 7y )
= ( 4x - 7y ) ( 2x + y )
