Question

Factorise this quadratic expression of the form axsquared + bx + c:
3xsquared - 24xy + 3ysquared

Answer 1

$\bf\large\underline\pink{Solution:-}$

In the same way as you could factor trinomials on the form of

x2+bx+c

You can factor polynomials on the form of

ax2+bx+c

If a is positive then you just proceed in the same way as you did previously except now

ax2+bx+c=(x+m)(ax+n)

wherec=mn,ac=pqandb=p+q=am+n
