Question

Factorize: 2x^2 − 50x − 108

Answer 1

Answer: 2(x-27)(x+2)

Step-by-step explanation:

factor 2x^2 − 50x − 108=2(x^2-25x-54)

next find two numbers that added by -25 and multiplied by -54, which are -27 and 2, thus

2x^2 − 50x − 108=2(x^2-25x-54)

                           =2(x+2)(x-27)
