Answer: Ann. Max answer is not complete because he could use the common factor for the (4x + 2) = 2(2x + 1)

Step-by-step explanation: 4x² - 6x - 4

Common factor: 4x² - 6x - 4 = 2(2x² - 3x - 2) =

product of 2 binomials: 2x² - 3x - 2 = 0

a = 2 b=-3 c=-2

Δ = (-3)² - 4.2.(-2) = 9 + 16 = 25

√Δ = 5

x = 3±5/4

x₁ = 3+5/4 = 8/4 = 2

x₂ = 3-5/4 = -2/4 = -1/2

a(x-x₁)(x-x₂) = 2 (x+1/2)(x-2)=(2x + 1)(x - 2)

So 2(2x² - 3x - 2) = 2(2x + 1)(x - 2)

Max answer is (x − 2)(4x + 2) is not complete because he could use the common factor for the (4x + 2) = 2(2x + 1)

Factored completely means ALL common factors have been taken out. Ann factored it correctly 2(x-2)(2x+1)

Two negative integers have a sum of -12 and a
emmainna [20.7K]

Answer:

The two integers are -1 and -11

Step-by-step explanation:

If you add -1 to -11, you would apply the rule of adding negatives (add then put the sign of the larger number). 11+1=12. They are both negative, so it would then become -12. -1 X -11=11 because when multiplying negatives, two of the same sign are positive
