Answer:
x=2.5 or x=-4
Step-by-step explanation:
factorisation= factors:1, 2, 4, 5, 10, 20 (only the positive factors)
We will use the factors 4 and 5.
=(2x-5)(x+4)=0
2x-5=0 || x+4=0
2x=+5 || x=-4
x=2.5 or x=-4

Answer: False</h3>
==============================================
Explanation:
I'm assuming you meant to type out
(y-2)^2 = y^2-6y+4
This equation is not true for all real numbers because the left hand side expands out like so
(y-2)^2
(y-2)(y-2)
x(y-2) .... let x = y-2
xy-2x
y(x)-2(x)
y(y-2)-2(y-2) ... replace x with y-2
y^2-2y-2y+4
y^2-4y+4
So if the claim was (y-2)^2 = y^2-4y+4, then the claim would be true. However, the right hand side we're given doesn't match up with y^2-4y+4
--------------------------
Another approach is to pick some y value such as y = 2 to find that
(y-2)^2 = y^2-6y+4
(2-2)^2 = 2^2 - 6(2) + 4 .... plug in y = 2
0^2 = 2^2 - 6(2) + 4
0 = 4 - 6(2) + 4
0 = 4 - 12 + 4
0 = -4
We get a false statement. This is one counterexample showing the given equation is not true for all values of y.
