Question

factorise: x2 - 5x - 6​

Answer 1

hey!

here is ur answer!

=======================

=> x^2 - 5x - 6 =0

( use the rule of middle term expansion)

=> x^2 - 6x + x - 6 =0

=> x ( x - 6 ) + 1( x - 6 ) = 0

=> (x+1) (x -6 ) = 0

hence the value of x ,
=> x +1 = 0
x = -1

=> x - 6 = 0
x = 6


x = -1 or 6

hope it helps!

Answer 2

HOLA MATE HERE IS YOUR ANSWER....

${x}^{2} - 5x - 6$

WE WILL SOLVE IT BY MIDDLE TERM SPLITTING

$product = {6x}^{2}$

Sum = 5x

${6x}^{2} \times {1x}^{2} = {6x}^{2}$

-6x + 1x = 5x

ANSWER :

${x}^{2} - 6x + 1x - 6$

NOW WE CAN FURTHER CONTINUE IT BY TAKING COMMON

SO,

x(x - 6) + 1 (x - 6)

Answer :

(X+1)(X-6)
