SOLUTION: factor polynomial
20w^2+100w +40 , i know that it is 20(w^2+5w+2), but doing it set by step is fuzz to me ..like writing it out. Need help i have been up studying 15hours.... than

Question 934659: factor polynomial
20w^2+100w +40 , i know that it is 20(w^2+5w+2), but doing it set by step is fuzz to me ..like writing it out. Need help i have been up studying 15hours.... thanks.. Found 3 solutions by jim_thompson5910, TimothyLamb, KMST:Answer by jim_thompson5910(35256) (Show Source):
You can put this solution on YOUR website! You have factored it fully as you cannot factor . There are no two whole numbers that multiply to (last term) and add to (middle coefficient).

the above quadratic equation is in standard form, with a=1, b=5 and c=2
---
to solve the quadratic equation, by using the quadratic formula, copy and paste this:
1 5 2
into this solver: https://sooeet.com/math/quadratic-equation-solver.php
---
the quadratic has two real roots at:
---
x = -0.438447187
x = -4.56155281
---
answer:
(x + 0.438447187)(x + 4.56155281)

It is not pretty, because the solutions to are .
If the solutions had been nice whole numbers,
you would have seen the factoring.
Probably you should go to sleep now, and so do I.
