(m+1)(m-2)- 4m(3-m)
Answers
Answer:5m^2-13m-2
Step-by-step explanation: final answer
STEP 1 :
Equation at the end of step 1
((m + 1) • (m - 2)) - 4m • (3 - m)
STEP 2 :
Equation at the end of step 2
(m + 1) • (m - 2) - 4m • (3 - m)
STEP 3
Trying to factor by splitting the middle term
3.1 Factoring 5m2-13m-2
The first term is, 5m2 its coefficient is 5 .
The middle term is, -13m its coefficient is -13 .
The last term, "the constant", is -2
Step-1 : Multiply the coefficient of the first term by the constant 5 • -2 = -10
Step-2 : Find two factors of -10 whose sum equals the coefficient of the middle term, which is -13 .
-10 + 1 = -9
-5 + 2 = -3
-2 + 5 = 3
-1 + 10 = 9
Observation : No two such factors can be found !!
Conclusion : Trinomial can not be factored
Final result :
5m2 - 13m - 2
- Multiply the parentheses
- Distribute -4m through the parentheses
- Collect like terms
