Question

p²-5p-6. factorise this

Answer 1

$\textbf{Given:}$

$\mathsf{P^2-5p-6}$

$\textbf{To find:}$

$\textsf{Factors of}\;\mathsf{p^2-5p-6}$

$\textbf{Solution:}$

$\textbf{Factorization:}$

$\textsf{The method of writing the given polynomial into product of}$

$\textsf{its factors is called FACTORIZATION}$

$\mathsf{Consider,}$

$\mathsf{p^2-5p-6}$

$\textsf{Spiliting the middle term}$

$\mathsf{=p^2-6p+p-6}$

$\mathsf{=p(p-6)+1(p-6)}$

$\mathsf{=(p+1)(p-6)}$

$\implies\boxed{\mathsf{P^2-5p-6=(p+1)(p-6)}}$

$\textbf{Find more:}$
