Question

x2+5x+24 expressions ​

Answer 1

Step-by-step explanation:

So we need to think of two numbers that gives us

5

x

but also

−

24

. So there are a few factors of 24. The only factor that works best for this expression is

−

8

and

3

which does work as

−

8

+

3

=

−

5

and

−

8

⋅

3

=

−

24

so -8 and 3 work so the final answer is:

(

x

−

8

)

(

x

+

3

)
