Answer:
for ax^2 + bx + c the factors are (x-d)(x-e) with d, e given by
-b + sqrt(b^2 -4ac)
d = -------------------
2a
-b - sqrt(b^2 -4ac)
e = -------------------
2a
This method works for all equations nicely and is really good for
calculators, but can get messy for people. For your quadratic we
have a = 1, b = -1, c = -2 thus
1 + sqrt(1 - 4(-2)) 1 + sqrt(1 +8) 1+3
d = -------------------- = ------------------- = ----- = 2
2 2 2
1 - sqrt(1 - 4(-2)) 1-3
e = -------------------- = ---- = -1
2 2
so:
(x^2 - x - 2) = (x - 2)(x - -1) = (x-2)(x+1)
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
(Alpha+1)(beta+1)
Alpha=-1
Beta=-1
C=alpha*beta
Therefore c=(-1)(-1)
C=1
