Question

factorize 2x^2y^2+5xy^3-12y^4

Answer 1

Answer:

$y^2(2x-3)(x+4)$

Step-by-step explanation:

Take out common factors with identity.

$y^2(2x^2+5xy-12y^2)$

Then use the ac method inside bracket. [8-3=5]

$2x^2+5xy-12y^2=(2x-3)(x+4)$

2x                 -3

x                    4

→ $y^2(2x-3)(x+4)$
