FACTOR THE POLYNOMIAL
1) X^2+10X+25
(x+___)(x+___)
Fill the blanks with two numbers that multiply together to give you 25, but add to give you 10.
5*5=25
5+5=10
(x+5)(x+5)
:
FACTOR EACH TRINOMIAL
1) 4(M-5)^2-4(M-5)-15
Let M-5=p
4p^2-4p-15
4p^2-10p+6p-15
(4p^2-10p)+(6p-15)
2p(2p-5)+3(2p-5)
(2p-5)(2p+3)
Let p=M-5
(2(M-5)-5)(2(M-5)+3)
(2M-10-5)(2M-10+3)
(2M-15)(2M-7)
Happy Calculating!!!!
