So let's take this step by step. The only two numbers that will give you 5 is 1 and 5. The numbers that can give you 16 is 1, 2, 4, 8, 16. The whole idea behind factoring is playing with these numbers and seeing what gives you -38. 

Let's set up the factors now: 

(5r + __) (r - __) 

What two numbers could you put in the blanks? If you multiply everything together, you'll have to get 5r^2-38r-16. 

If you play around with the numbers, 2 and 8 could be used. So let's plug them in.

(5r + 2)(r - 8) 

If you multiply them out, you'll get 5r^2 - 40r + 2r - 16, or 5r^2 - 38r -16. Hope that helps.

How is 2 ones the same as 20 tenths?
yan [13]

It's because a tenth means that you've divided it by 10. So if it's 20, it means you're multiplying tenths by 20, leaving you with 2 wholes.

For example, you have 2 cakes and you cut each into 10 slices, the slices are each one tenth of the whole cake, and in total there are 20 tenths.
