Question 105298: I was doing great until I ran into this one please help!
Find all positive values for k for which each of the following can be factored
x^2 + 5x + k
Thank you very much!

following the rules for factoring, the factors of k must add to give +5

assuming only integer values, the choices are quite limited ... what pairs of positive numbers add to 5?

multiplying the numbers in the pairs will give the values of k
