Can someone please explain why this is incorrect? Isn’t (2x+5)(x+1) the same as (x+1)(2x+5)?
Ne4ueva [31]

Answer:

2(2x+5) (x+1) = 2(x+1)(2x+5)

Step-by-step explanation:

4x^2 +14x+10

Factor out the 2

2(2x^2 +7x+5)

2(2x+5) (x+1)


You need to keep the 2 that you factored out

2(2x+5) (x+1) = 2(x+1)(2x+5)  by the  Commutative Property of Multiplication
