Answer:
y² −5y+6=y² −2y−3y+6
=y² −2y−3y+2×3
=y(y−2)−3(y−2)
=(y−2)(y−3)
Step by Step Solution:
STEP 1: Trying to factor by splitting the middle term.
Factoring y2-5y+6 :
The first term is, y2 its coefficient is 1 .
The middle term is, -5y its coefficient is -5 .
The last term, "the constant", is +6
Step-1 : Multiply the coefficient of the first term by the constant 1 • 6 = 6
Step-2 : Find two factors of 6 whose sum equals the coefficient of the middle term, which is -5 .
-6 + -1 = -7
-3 + -2 = -5 That's it
Step-3 : Rewrite the polynomial splitting the middle term using the two factors found in step 2 above, -3 and -2
y2 - 3y - 2y - 6
Step-4 : Add up the first 2 terms, pulling out like factors :
y • (y-3)
Add up the last 2 terms, pulling out common factors :
2 • (y-3)
Step-5 : Add up the four terms of step 4 :
(y-2) • (y-3)
Which is the desired factorization
Final result :
(y - 2) • (y - 3)
