Question

x_6 ÷ ^£by 44 how much is it
​

Answer 1

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Evaluate : (x+6)2 = x2+12x+36

Trying to factor by splitting the middle term

1.2 Factoring x2+12x-8

The first term is, x2 its coefficient is 1 .

The middle term is, +12x its coefficient is 12 .

The last term, "the constant", is -8

Step-1 : Multiply the coefficient of the first term by the constant 1 • -8 = -8

Step-2 : Find two factors of -8 whose sum equals the coefficient of the middle term, which is 12 .

-8 + 1 = -7

-4 + 2 = -2

-2 + 4 = 2

-1 + 8 = 7

Observation : No two such factors can be found !!

Conclusion : Trinomial can not be factored
