The factors of the quadratic equation are (x+3) and (x-15).
<h2 /><h2>Given to us</h2>
<h3>To find</h3>
The factors of
.
<h3 /><h3>Solution</h3>

As we can see in the quadratic equation the value of ac is -45x². therefore, we need to divide -12x into two parts such that their sum must give -12x and their product gives us -45x².
therefore, dividing -12x into -15x and 3x,

Taking common out,

Hence, the factors of the quadratic equation are (x+3) and (x-15).

Sari did not use the greatest common factor in the equation.
To find explicit formulas, you need two things. The common difference and the first term.
For example, #18
The first term = -15
The common difference = -20 -(-15) = -20 + 15 = -5
y = A + B(n - 1)
A = our first term
B = our common difference
n = the term you want to find in the sequence.
Leta plug our numbers in from #18
y = -15 + -5(n - 1)
Let's find the 4th term in the sequence.
y = -15 + -5(4 - 1)
y = -15 + -5(3)
y = -15 + -15
y = -30
