Question 672152

which of the following is a polynomial facor of 8x^2 + 22x - 6,,, how do you do this?

A. (4x-3)
B. (4x+3)
c. (8x-2)
d. (8x+3)
e. (8x+6)


{{{8x^2 + 22x - 6}}}


{{{2(4x^2 + 11x - 3)}}}


{{{2(4x^2 + 12x - x - 3)}}}


2[4x(x + 3) - 1(x + 3)]


2(4x - 1)(x + 3)


Looking at the 1st two factors, 2(4x - 1), and distributing them, we see that one of the factors is: {{{highlight_green(8x - 2)}}} (CHOICE C)
