Question 35562: Factor each polynomial
V^2 - 22v - 75
Answer by rapaljer(4671) (Show Source):
You can put this solution on YOUR website! What two factors multiply to give you 75, and the difference is -22?? If you started with 25 that's good, and the other factor would be 3. In order to subtract to give a difference of -22, try using -25 and +3. It looks like this:
(x __)(x __)
(x-25)(x+3)
If you FOIL it out, it checks!!
