Mathematics

Answer:

(x - 1)

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

8x² - 15x + 7

Consider the factors of the product of the coefficient of the x² term and the constant term which sum to give the coefficient of the x- term

product = 8 × 7 = 56 and sum = - 15

The factors are - 8 and - 7

Use these factors to split the x- term

8x² - 8x - 7x + 7 ( factor the first/second and third/fourth terms )

= 8x(x - 1) - 7(x - 1) ← factor out (x - 1) from each term

= (x - 1)(8x - 7) ← in factored form

The missing factor is (x - 1)

How to multiply and divide integers
Artyom0805 [142]

You multiply or divide integers just as you do whole numbers, except you must keep track of the signs. To multiply or divide signed integers, always multiply or divide the absolute values and use these rules to determine the sign of the answer.

<span>
When you multiply two integers with the same signs, the result is always positive. Just multiply the absolute values and make the answer positive.</span>

<span>Positive x positive = positive 
Negative x negative = positive</span>

<span>When you multiply two integers with different signs, the result is always negative. Just multiply the absolute values and make the answer negative.</span>

<span>Positive x negative = negative
Negative x positive = negative</span>

<span>Positive ÷ positive = positive
Negative ÷ negative = positive</span>
