Are you able to expand everything first? from there you would be able to combine line terms. basically if you have 3x+2x it would combine to 5x because they have x in them.

2(x/2 -5)-3/2(x+7/4)
= x-10-3x/2-21/8
Then we,combine like terms;
= -x/2-101/8
Then,take out -1/2 to simply the equation.

= -1/2(x+101/4)

Why can't <img src="https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=x%5E2-5x-1" id="TexFormula1" title="x^2-5x-1" alt="x^2-5x-1" align="absmiddle" class

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Discussion.

Not directly. But the quadratic formula can do it. But that's not your question.

the factors you get must contain the factors for 1 which are 1 and - 1

These factors must add to - 5. There's no way that will happen with 1 and - 1 and you would be creative math if you tried to say that you could make one of the factors (x -1-1-1-1-1-1). That creates a whole new question.
