Question

use spliting middle team and property to solve x2-2x-8​

Answer 1

Answer:

X = 2,-4

Step-by-step explanation:

x²-2x-8

x²-4x+2x-8=0

x(x-4) + 2(x-4) = 0

(x+2) (x+4) = 0

Now,

x+2=0 x+4=0

x= -2 x= -4

Middle term Splitting :- It is the method in which the numbers required for the product of the constant term and the coefficient of x² is equal to the addition or subtraction of the coefficient of x.

Hope it helps....

Pls give thanks....

Answer 2

Here is the solution

x^2 + 2x - 4x - 8

= x ( x + 2) - 4 ( x + 2)

= ( x + 2) ( x - 4)
