Question

factorise the following: p²+5p+4​

Answer 1

Step-by-step explanation:

p^2+5p+4=0.

; p^2+4p+p+4=0.

; p(p+4)+1(p+4)=0.

; (p+4)(p+1)=0.

either,,

p+4=0. OR p+1=0.

p=-4. OR. p=-1.

Answer 2

For this we can use splitting the middle term.
Product = 4 (4(1))
Sum = 5 (4+1)
The two numbers are 4 and 1
P^2+4p+p+4
By taking common numbers/variables
P(P+4) + 1 (P+4)

By taking common numbers/variables
(P+4) (P+1)
The factors are P+4 and P+1
