Answer:
1). (x - 13)(x + 5)
2). (x - 9)(x + 6)
Solution:
The given quadratic polynomial are :
1). x² - 8x - 65
2). x² - 3x - 54
We need to factorize the given quadratic polynomial by middle term splitting method.
Working rule :
★ Write the given quadratic polynomial in its standar form ( ie ; ax² + bx + c ).
★ Split the middle term of the quadratic polynomial in such a way that the product of its parts is equal to the product of the first term and the last term .
Thus,
1). x² - 8x - 65
=> x² - 8x - 65
=> x² - 13x + 5x - 65
=> x(x - 13) + 5(x - 65)
=> (x - 13)(x + 5)
Also,
2). x² - 3x - 54
=> x² - 3x - 54
=> x² - 9x + 6x - 54
=> x(x - 9) + 6(x - 9)
=> (x - 9)(x + 6)
