Question

What are the following factors of x² - 6x +8

Answer 1

Answer:

The factors are x-2 and x-4.

Step-by-step explanation:

x^2 - 6x + 8

= (x - 2)(x - 4)

Answer 2

Answer:

2) 4,2

Step-by-step explanation:

Factor by grouping:

$x^2-6x+8\\\\x^2-4x-2x+8\\\\x(x-4)-2(x-4)\\\\(x-2)(x-4)$

Setting the expression equal to 0 and using the Zero Product Property, $x=2$ and $x=4$, which are the factors of the original polynomial.
